The carbon tax doesn’t cut emissions. It cuts family budgets. The carbon tax will cost the average family up to $710 this year even after the rebates, according to the Parliamentary Budget Officer. Despite the carbon tax’s environmental failings, and inflation reaching a 40-year high last year, Trudeau still moved forward with a second carbon tax on July 1. The second carbon tax is included within fuel regulations and requires producers to reduce the carbon content of their fuels or be forced to purchase credits. The PBO estimates the second carbon tax will increase the price of gas by up to 17 cents per litre by 2030 and cost the average family up to $1,157. The government’s own analysis shows the second carbon tax will “disproportionately impact lower and middle-income households,” including “single mothers” and “seniors living on fixed incomes.” There are no rebates with the second carbon tax. And it’s being added on top of the current tax so that by 2030, Trudeau’s two carbon taxes will cost the average family more than $2,000 annually. No matter how many carbon taxes Trudeau makes Canadians pay, higher gas prices in Canada won’t solve climate change. It’s time for the feds to recognize reality and stop making life more expensive.
