Pump Shock

High gas prices got you feeling down?

The NDP has a positive, practical plan to help --

Gas price regulation – for fair, stable predictable prices at the pump.

The NDP stands up for consumers. We believe in strong, effective consumer protection – safeguards only the province can provide – to make sure no big business can swindle, cheat or rip off hard-working ordinary folks.

Dalton McGuinty promised positive change. Instead of progress, we’re seeing the same old approach – governments letting Big Oil companies get away with highway robbery.

Gas price regulation is a fresh idea that will make a real difference for drivers. It will stop gas price volatility, eliminate opportunistic price gouging and deliver fair, stable and predictable fuel prices – and lower gas prices over the long haul.
