    Bill Boyd passed out alot of blinders the last time he ran and many are still wearing them.Like I said before Moe will grab more taxes through his new tax department than any government and not lose one vote.

      But you wholly support Trudeau’s carbon tax unequivocally….

      Yes Moe needs to back off , and any sane middle class worker can see the damage being done by the Liberals wealth redistribution scheme in the carbon tax

        Huh? If its a wealth distrbution scheme which it is not, its not doing a very good job!

        We have a progressive tax system which does a much better job at wealth redistribution.

        "Trevor Tombe, the University of Calgary economist, According to his calculations, these knock-ons do add to the impact of inflation, but they certainly don't double or triple the blow. In Ontario, the direct and indirect effects inflate prices by 0.207 per cent a year. In Alberta, it's 0.1875 per cent.

          Looks like you got Chuck all excited by talking about wealth redistribution.

          The fact the he considers this to be ineffective tells you how much further they want to take this tax.

              Huh?

              90% of the carbon tax is returned to consumers so no its not a very effective at wealth redistribution and that is not what it was designed to do anyway. And it has a very small impact on inflation compared to other sources of inflation.

              The oil companies are much better at wealth redistribution. They make record profits from consumers and give a a much smaller group of of relatively well off sharehoders the majority of the benefits. Many of whom don't live in Canada. I am still waiting for a rebate from the oil companies!

              And farmers receive taxpayers support and subsidies another example of wealth redistribution. If you are opposed to wealth redistribution are you going to send back your subsidies?

              So is Crypto going to get rid of our progressive federal tax system? LOL

                We cash in our oil rebate from investments in a healthy economy with every pension check.
                Comparing any tax or govt program to private enterprise is just silly. Sadly they don't teach this in schools so most people believe you.

                  Except your argument is the carbon tax kills the economy because it raises energy prices!

                  But when the market and OPEC raises energy costs this is good for the economy and consumers? LOL

                  You can't have it both ways!

                  The oil industry is important to the economy but the excess profits go to shareholders in a massive transfer of wealth mostly to those who are already well off.

                    Oil prices affect our competition worldwide equally. Its a level playing field. CO2 tax only destroys Canadian businesses competitivity.

                      Pension plans own shares in oil companies do they not?

                        And the carbon tax is really like increasing the GST. You're just calling it something else.

                          The US has lower fuel taxes and fuel prices than Canada for a long time so that is just not true!

                          Europe has had higher fuel prices for a long time too.

                          Its not a level playing field then is it? Wrong again? LOL
