New, Watered-Down Carbon Tax Changes Nothing
A Made-in-Ottawa Carbon Tax will impact Saskatchewan’s economy to the tune of $1.8 billion each and every year while only marginally reducing carbon emissions.
After two years of telling us that a carbon tax would not affect Canada’s competitiveness and hurt our economy, the federal government has finally admitted that it will.
The Trudeau government recently announced that they will now reduce the amount of tax companies are required to pay on their greenhouse gas emissions.
The previous Made-in-Ottawa Carbon Tax scheme does nothing for the environment, reduces jobs and takes money from families. The new, watered-down Made-in-Ottawa Carbon Tax scheme is the same. It’s still a carbon tax that will affect jobs, businesses, and families across Canada.
