As someone who supports the carbon rebate and thinks it’s a good policy, I have to admit that Carney is right. Trudeau screwed up the implementation, and now a policy that gives most Canadians more money than they pay is a third rail.

Replacing the tax with something more acceptable, and equally effective seems like a good way forward.

What we really need is something to make everyone else burn less fossil fuel that doesn’t affect me personally in any way, because obviously I need to keep driving my SUV around the city. How else am I supposed to get the kids to soccer practice?
