That is one way a "carbon tax" is actually useful- as the money goes directly from consumer to consumer.

you're first sentence is extremely telling, Ontario is certainly not doing it right, when I've read that Ontario Utilities bill are nearly double any other province.
From the gas plant scandal to how they've implemented the green energy stuff has been one boondoggle after another.
And the people that it effects badly are on the lower and middle class.
