Most Canadian families will struggle just to be able to afford their yearly summer road trip. That is because the carbon tax has helped push the cost of fuel up to record highs.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8413171\" data-originallang=\"en\">Conservatives have called for a common-sense plan to axe the carbon tax and all federal taxes from fuel from now until Labour Day. That would save about 35\u00a2 a litre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8413172\" data-originallang=\"en\">Will the government adopt our common-sense plan so Canadians can afford their summer road trip?</p>",
