I would in theory be ok with a carbon tax if the revenue was separate and audit-able and treated like a separate budget for Green incentives, I would also want the government to establish exactly how big the department is to track it and the overall costs.

But instead its going to go into general revenue and probably go towards their operating budget deficit and do very little in terms of environmental or carbon footprint reduction.

In otherword's yeah, this is going to be a unpredictable GST and the revenues are going to be pissed away for little effect.

The other thing that bugs me is that is its a badly thought of carbon tax that's not only going to make our local products uncompetitive against import products, but it in effect is going to punish people more that are struggling then anyone else.

Its typical socialist bs from the NDP who because they think that the government should control everything because they know better then anything else are not only going to try a hare brained wealth distribution system (The rebate) that's not going to help people all that much, but they're actively going to be picking winners and losers in the business environment which is something that they're going to fail at.

This whole thing has pissed me off enough that last night I actually joined the conservative party and I'm going to go to the debate on the 8th and vote for a leader that I trust on the 15th.
