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.

The system gives rebates before the tax is charged. No one is waiting for the next rebate, they already have it.

Yet another example of the carbon tax comms failures
