Mark Carney Want to tremove Consumer Carbon Tax

from Policy and Rights · host Michael Clogs

At a news conference on Parliament Hill, NDP MP Charlie Angus calls on Canadians to sign his “pledge for Canada” to defend what he calls Canadian values. The event comes as U.S. President Donald Trump’s Feb. 1 tariff deadline approaches.  Angus is joined by John Cartwright, chair of the Council of Canadians, Esi Edugyan, a novelist, and Jean Teillet, an Indigenous rights lawyer. In Halifax, federal Liberal leadership candidate Mark Carney releases his plan to replace the consumer carbon tax, proposing instead a system of incentives aimed at encouraging Canadians to make greener purchases. He is joined by Liberal MP Sean Fraser. Responding to questions from reporters, Carney comments on how a government led by him would respond to U.S. President Trump’s 25 per cent import tariffs.
