Liberals accuse Conservatives of ‘hypocrisy, collective amnesia’ for carbon pricing dismissal“I feel for the NDP and for Jagmeet. This is a hard moment. There are political headwinds. There’s a lot of political pressure. I’m certainly feeling it,” Trudeau said Friday at a press conference in Vaughan, Ont.
Speaking at the Broadbent Institute Progress Summit on Thursday, Singh gave a keynote speech when he criticized the current Liberal approach to pricing pollution, saying that it is dividing Canadians and relying too much on the free market to fix climate change.“Justin Trudeau has divided Canadians on who pays the cost of fighting it. He doesn’t see fighting the climate crisis as an opportunity to unite us to take on this threat. He sees it as a political wedge,” Singh said.
This move set off a renewed opposition to the federal carbon price, with seven provinces calling for the April 1 increase to $80 a tonne at least be paused, citing cost of living challenges. Ahead of the vote, NDP environment critic Laurel Collins criticized the Liberal approach for treating the consumer carbon price as “the be-all and end-all of climate policy.”In his speech Thursday, Singh said the NDP is working on its own climate plan, with a focus on recognizing regional differences and putting a greater emphasis on industrial carbon pricing.
