Canada’s environment and climate change minister acknowledged that acknowledged that on average, households may eventually pay more for the carbon price than it gets back in rebate payments, but says the Liberal government has other programs to help Canadians lower their energy costs overall.
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault told CTV’s Question Period host Vassy Kapelos in an interview airing Sunday that while the “average household will pay more” because of the carbon price increase, even after the rebates, he says the system is designed to be proportional, meaning wealthier Canadians will still foot larger bills.
“This is another way we're helping Canadians reduce their environmental impact, but also their overall energy costs,” he said, adding the PBO’s report does not take into account the cost of the impacts of climate change.
Pile of you know what. What a bunch of arrogant so and sos. I have been in the states for a while and despite all down here at least they care about what their actions will do for the American people in terms of cost impact .
It’s a cash grab. Nothing more, nothing less.
Defund CTV
BTW, why should I hate the rich? Why should I feel good about rich to suffer more than me?
My carbon tax rebate was $134 Won't cover 1 visit to the grocery store
The Federal Government just informed me I'm rich! I had no idea.
Little Stevie is right full of BS!!
Scrap it.
lies lies lies. it’s a tax!! no impact on climate other than revenues for the corrupt liberals
It never happened, and it's never going to happen. Why is Trudeau's money offshore ? Why did Panama paper billions never be collected? cdnpoli
That was a lie
You crackhead. More lies to justify this scam. The rich pay you to keep them rich with Tax breaks and more. They will never pay their share when Liberals are in power.
s_guilbeault is flip flopping more than a fish out of polluted St Lawrence seaway water.
The middle class gets squeezed some more.
Obviously a baseless claim. The carbon tax isn’t based on income, everyone pays the same… this is just another liberal lie.
His threshold for being rich is pretty low🍉🇨🇳🖕🏻
This lying piece of work.
s_guilbeault I thought this headline was incorrect?
Perhaps making a criminal ecoterrorist our environment minister wasn’t the best choice. An in true wannabe socialist fashion, he determines its OK that we all pay more, as long as the “rich” pay the most. Of course our “rich” folks are typically hard workers who create benefit
Thieves
