How is it fair to force carbon taxes on the provinces, while allowing Chinese goods in tax free?
Perhaps the provinces should flip the tables, and implement a tariff themselves.
They went even a bit farther. They said the carbon tax is not a tax, since its not a percentage. The carbon tax according to the SCC is a fee or charge.
I expect this, and I expect Kenney and Ford will say "well, we did all we could folks". We will live with this forever, just like abortion and gay marriage and right to suicide laws. There is no conserving of anything in the end.
Imagine carbon taxing someone for driving to work, heating his house, and for making a product that someone needs. Bullshit.
Imagine being taxed for working.
I bet you get a little bit teary eyed while watching The Man In the High Castle.
Never heard of the Man In The High Castle?
An alternate universe where the US and the Allies lost the war. The US was then divided between Nazi Germany and the Empire of Japan.

Rachel Notley literally said something very similar.
Which is even more out of touch considering how cold Alberta gets.
Unbelievable the contempt these politicians have for us commoners.

RIP Canada.

That is so fuckign stupid. Nowhere does it say it stops being a tax if it's not counted as a percentage.
Our supreme court is so corrupt it's hard to believe. They will never rule against a Liberal government on any significant issue.
The "funny" thing is that the SCC now refers to the carbon tax as carbon pricing, the same phrase O'Toole used.
Heard the same thing from him for the last two years, but I everytime I pay SaskPower or SaskEnergy there is a "Federal Carbon Charge".
Be prepared to pay more than 15 cents for a kWh (carbon tax included).
Judicial activism has reached the highest level of this country.
Fuck the British flag
