Energy Sector: Oil and Rick Walker

energy sector: Many spoke about the economic situation in Western Canada, according to CTV. They said they want more money in their pockets instead of being taxed and more support for pipelines and jobs in the oil industry. Travelling from Virden to Brandon, the group protested Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and a range of issues connected to the oil sector and taxation. Organizers said the line of vehicles was almost 10 kilometers long. But he said it's not just the energy sector struggling and believes there are many people who can't afford any more taxes. Rick Walker has worked in the oil business on and off for 30 years and helped organize the event. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
