Ideally you would tax both no? If you want to lower household emissions your end goal would be to see Canadian homes that are both space (less area to heat) and energy (less energy used to heat that space) efficient. So tax both excess space and excess usage and parlay the revenue from that taxation into cooresponding tax credits to encourage efficient space and efficient usage.
