“No-one can understand why last year when oil per barrel was around $140 or $150 we were paying $1.37 per litre, when this year oil is south of $98 a barrel and yet we’re paying more,” Clement told a news conference held outside the home of a north Toronto MP.

“That’s just one issue. There’s a lot of issues that have to be addressed, people deserve the answers to these questions.”
