He won three consecutive elections on it. What is jokes is Poilievre thinks he can deceive Canadians that Trudeau’s low poll #s are because of the carbon tax but they are because of global inflation and the fastest cycle of interest rate hikes in Canadian history. Trudeau’s poll #s will naturally improve as inflation falls and BOC starts cutting rates but Poilievre will still be a climate change denier.

There's more policy issues than the carbon tax.

They are also engaging in other forms of quality of life reduction.

If people weren't worse off then the tax wouldn't be reducing carbon emissions. Carbon emissions are quality of life. Reduction in carbon emissions is reduction in quality of life. The debate around the money is purely an attempt to confuse people with pseudo-intellectualism. What Canada is doing is intentionally destroying people's quality of life in an attempt to control the weather. That is, unless you believe the government is just a nefarious entity, at that point they're just hurting you because they like hurting you.

Since the buy-in is an impossibility, attempts to control the weather will always fail, even if the plan could have worked in theory. The conditions required to make the plan work can never exist.

JT talks about using basic math to prove the carbon tax isn’t a cause for inflation. I’m not sure how ANYONE can actually believe that! With increased carbon taxing, that means higher prices for basically everything (at least groceries, products & materials, deliveries, etc) because EVERYONE is affected. The factory passes on the increase they incur for importing materials…the stores pass on increases they incur for deliveries…and so-on? How are there still people that don’t recognize the most basic of economics?

@billdonahue1688 2 месяца назад

A couple of months ago, Stats Canada released their latest report on the total costs of carbon tax on things like groceries, including both direct carbon tax and indirect carbon tax paid during production, processing, shipping, etc, and it was 1/3rd of 1% of the end price of groceries. So relax. Your assumption about the high cost of carbon tax on your groceries is wildly overestimated. And therefore probably for most other things, too.

The 'counter argument' by the interviewer is quite a joke, he is saying: "So the criticism to your report is that you only consider the scenario where carbon tax is applied vs no carbon tax, but how about scenarios outside of these two cases? and to add to that, how about the hypothetical scenarios where carbon tax is not applied and more floodings, fires, etc happen?" So basically, he is asking: Estimate the cost under technologies that we don't have or estimate the cost under future climate events. Things that neither the entire financial industry can do (1st point), nor the entire scientist community have ever been able to do with fair accuracy (2nd point).

Get this straight when you get your rebate it/household is $450.00 for 3 months now to fill your car costs you $75.00 if you live in Alberta for 10 days: if you live in BC this is $123.00; if you live in Saskatchewan, $93.00; Ontario $95.00; Quebec $98.00; New Brunswick $104.00; Nova Scotia $112.00; PEI $118.00 and NFD $121.00 every 10 days so I'm not sure where they are getting their results from. This is only for traveling back and forth to work if you live in the city. Gas for your vehicle only lasts for 1.25 months if you only drive from work to home, not to pick up your sons or daughters, not for groceries or getaways. This report is being manipulated right from the start, when does the government tell you that they are paying out more than they are taking in, why have a rebate then or a committee to tell you the difference or line of accountants to show them why they need them. What about the services that are going up to deal with this higher cost of living. Then the budget for Canadian inflation will drive up interest rates because they can't get inflation under control but it stems back from Carbon tax increases.

Canada doesn't contribute to the carbon emissions. According to global forest watch (an organization that has data on carbon going back to 2001), we remove more than what we produce: "Between 2001 and 2022, forests in Canada emitted 863 MtCO₂e/year, and removed -1.65 GtCO₂e/year. This represents a net carbon sink of -783 MtCO₂e/year".

Pierre uses the average carbon tax cost, which is indeed a negative, to insinuate that all households pay more money into the CT than they get back through the rebates. This is not the case. The low and middle-income households, 4 out of 10 (making about that 100k/year and under), do get more money back, something like 200$ to 600$. The slightly richer and rich households, 4 out of 10 (making over 150k/year to the millions) do lose more. But because some of them pay a lot more, like up to 4-5-6k, their losses then skew the average into the negative. The rich however have money so it's not some undue hardship on them. The other 2 out of 10 households break even or pay slightly more, like the cost of a few burger meals. That's if they don’t change their ways.

The problem with the CT is that it is a sin tax. Sin taxes are supposed to lower consumption of things that are OPTIONAL, such as tobacco or alcohol. You can choose to stop consuming them if you don't want to pay the tax. The CT is not optional, you can't not heat your house or go to work. So if you have the insane amount of money to go off grid, cool, but if you don't , even if you reduce as much as possible, you will still keep paying more as the CT gets increased every year! So the CT punishes you if you don't change, but it still punishes you even if you do change! That is sheer and utter stupidity. Plus the huge amount of extra bureaucrats that have been hired to run the damn program should also be an indicator that it is a make work program for the government, and a wealth redistribution program (from tax payers to the government employees).
