FOG BLOG RIDICULOG: NB OPPOSITION LEADER LOBBYING FOR A GAS TAX REBATE, HIGGS ANSWERS HALF HEARTED!

HERE WE GO AGAIN! BLAINE HIGGS SHRUGGING SOMETHING OFF, 'YES WE WILL LOOK INTO IT!' WE'VE HEARD THAT ONE BEFORE! PREMIER HIGGS PULLED THAT ONE OFF AFTER A YEAR AND CHANGE AGO WHEN HE RECEIVED A REPORT SHOWING HOW BAD THINGS ARE REGARDING RENTS IN NB. PEOPLE GIVEN SHORT NOTICE TO VACATE, RENTS GOING UP 100% ETC. WITH NO GUIDE LINES OR LEGISLATION TO HELP THE CITIZENS OF THIS PROVINCE. WE WILL SEE WHEN ELECTION TIME ROLLS AROUND ABOUT HIS CHANCES UNLESS HE DOES SOME FANCY FOOTWORK! THIS TIME THE INTERIM LEADER OF THE NB LEGISLATURE , ROGER MELANSON BROUGHT UP THE EVER INCREASING GAS AND DIESEL PRICES. AS OF YESTERDAY THE GAS WAS AT $1.98/L AND THE DIESEL IS A WHOPPING $2.55/L. HE SUGGESTED THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF GAS TAX REBATE. HE DIDN'T GIVE A SUGGESTION WHETHER THAT SHOULD BE IN THE FORM OF A CHEQUE TO NB'RS OR IN ANOTHER FORM LIKE A REDUCTION FOR A WHILE OF GAS PRICES BY REMOVING ONE OR SEVERAL TAXES, THAT WOULD BRING THE PRICE DOWN PER LITRE! PREMIER HIGGS ANSWERED BACK BY SAYING SOMETHING LIKE......YES I'VE NOTICED IN THE PAST MONTH OR 2 THE PRICE GOING UP ON GAS AND DIESEL, YET OFFERING NO SOLUTION OR BREAK FOR THE PUBLIC THAT PUT HIM IN OFFICE. THIS INACTION IF LIKE HIS ON RENT CONTROL OR LACK THERE OF......HEAVEN HELP US! BLAINE HIGGS HAS A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO HELP US RIGHT NOW AND EVEN ON THE SUBJECT OF RENT CONTROLS THAT ARE NEEDED SO BADLY! PREMIER HIGGS, DON'T BLOW IT, HELP US OUT NOW AND YOU WILL REAP THE REWARDS COME ELECTION TIME!!
