The PBO clearly said a large percentage or around 90% of carbon taxes come back directly to most tax payers in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Did you not get your cheque?

Now Chuck2 I didn’t expect you to respond to my post because it contained actual facts and figures not computer models. But please explain to me how Justin Trudeau is making my life more affordable? As I pointed out above a five year contract price for the generation portion of electricity in Alberta has gone up 85% at the same time as the price of natural gas dropping over 50% from December 2022 to today. July 1 the new clean fuel standard kicks in. April 1 2023 the carbon tax increased 30%. They want steel and aluminum produced in a greener manner which will increase cost, no more coking coal. Please show me one example of anything Trudeau and his climate zealots are doing to make my cost of producing food more affordable?!?!

Do you think truckers get 90% of their carbon tax back Chuck2?

I’ve never gotten a carbon tax cheque, am I missing out on something?

Proves the fact that it’s simply a wealth redistribution scheme, nothing more , nothing less . Will have zero effect on climate …. Ever
The ones that have no choice but to burn petroleum are getting hit the hardest. And in all cases except farmers , those costs are going back to the consumers 10x in inflated prices.
It’s amazing how most people are blind to this fact .
They are getting one dollar back for every 5 it’s costing them .
Did you get your check …… Bahahaha.
Spend $10 to get a dollar back …. Yup makes them feel good 🤦*♂️

I get a cheque. Wouldn’t say it’s near 90%.

What exactly is the point of having a tax, and increasing it frequently, if you’re just going to give 90% of it back anyway? Why not just lower the tax. Talk about a make work project.

Mental manipulation at its finest. Vote for me, I’m going to increase your taxes by ex amount but I’ll give you 90% of that back. The other guy isn’t going to give you nearly that much back so don’t vote for him.

Need to find a chart on what industries, businesses and individuals pay the most and what percentage they get back . My guess the ole 80-20 rule won’t be far off

Excellent comment. No doubt the reality is highly productive industries with high energy usage pay a huge amount of carbon tax but corporations don’t vote, people do. So the Liberal’s transfer money to their urban voter base via the carbon tax from these corporations! And ideologues like Chuck2 drink the kool aid and love it.

Make no mistake , they’re sure as hell ain’t no 90 % coming back ?
They are counting the direct tax , not the indirect, over and over and over and over and over……….
