      Which Liberal strategist thought that this would be a winning strategy in a cold northern sparsely populated industrialized country?

        The problem with Crypto's assertion that the carbon tax is a big cause of inflation is that it is not true!

        According to Bank of Canada,the direct cost is 0.15% and Trevor Tombe at the U of C said according to his calculations, these knock-ons (indirect costs) 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.??

        Crypto is lying and counting on the fact that most voters will blame the rising costs on the Liberals.

        So Crypto is going to cut the tax and the climate action rebate. Prices will not go down significantly and consumers won't get the rebate so they will be worse off. Crypto will have a lot of explaining to do.




        There's now a Bank of Canada number for carbon tax's impact on inflation. It's small

        Making everything more expensive? Only by a fraction of a percentage point

        Jason Markusoff ([url]https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/author/jason-markusoff-1.6448323[/url]) · CBC News · Posted: Sep 08, 2023

        It's inescapably true that the federal carbon tax makes life for Canadians more expensive — before the "climate action incentive" rebate — and Bank of Canada governor Tiff Macklem reiterated this on a visit to Calgary on Thursday.

        He brought further clarity to the highly charged political discourse by putting a number on it.

        That number: 0.15 percentage points of the inflation increase can be attributed to the carbon tax.
        ?
        Consider that impact this way: with year-over-year inflation lately hovering around three per cent, this means the carbon tax causes one-twentieth of price increases. When inflation peaked at just above eight per cent last year, the carbon tax would have been responsible for one-54th of it.

        Normally one to deal in data rather than estimates, Macklem didn't offer a more universal figure on the carbon tax, with the direct fuel markup added to the indirect costs those increases have on goods.

        For that, we'll go to Trevor Tombe, the University of Calgary economist who's well-versed enough in this matter that he can harness Statistics Canada data to figure out these indirect costs.

        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.?

        In other words, we can rightly blame Trudeau's carbon tax for about one-fifteenth of Ontario's current inflation, or one-sixteenth of Alberta's. "Relatively small," is how Macklem put it.

            You are the uninformed one. They are not losing their homes because of the carbon tax. They are losing their homes because of higher interest rates and higher housing costs.

            Crypto is lying about the carbon tax and inflation just to win an election.

            Voters will then realize he can't do much about high house prices and high interest rates. They are going to be severely dissappointed!

                    no one including Pierre can do any worse

                      Inflation is affecting many countries. Canada is in the middle of the G7 inflation rates, so it can't all be Trudeau's fault can it? LOL

                            Of course voters are going to blame the current government just like Harper was hated in the end. That's politics.

                            But try to get the facts straight, in stead of falling for all of Crypto's bullshit!

                              The cost of carbon tax is small compared to the unproductive debt that the liberals have added on to Canadians balance owing. The debt servicing costs will be a burden for decades. This is what should bring them down.
