This is from Northwest Territories MLA Jackie Jacobson: \u201cwe're really hurting.... Single mothers are having to choose to buy Pampers or pay their cell bill, or pay their power bill, or pay to buy food, and people are going without.\u201d No mother should ever have to make the difficult decision between buying food and keeping their children warm in winter. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7825696\" data-originallang=\"en\">When will the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> finally axe his cruel carbon tax?</p>",
