from Canadian Taxpayers Podcast · host Canadian Taxpayers Federation

Liberal leadership front-runner Mark Carney wants you to think he’s scrapping the carbon tax. But he wants to impose carbon taxes on businesses and carbon tax tariffs. Here’s the thing: a carbon tax on business is a carbon tax on consumers. Carbon taxes on refineries make gas more expensive. Carbon taxes on utilities make home heating more expensive. And Carbon taxes on fertilizer plants increase costs for farmers and make groceries more expensive. Plus, we break down how the federal government should response to potential tariffs from the United States. All that and more in this week’s Canadian Taxpayers Podcast.
