Ultimately I don't trust the NDP to be able to efficiently allocate the capital that they are raising with this new tax. They are creating a new bureaucratic hub to do so, and I question whether additional bureaucracy is necessary when we are already burdening ourselves with debt to cover operating expenses.
Yup, I much much much prefer that they would copy BC and use the revenue neutral income tax cut approach.

However, I still say that a carbon tax is the best tool that we have to put us on the right path to our climate goals.

Also, that's why Chong is by far the best candidate in all the parties for climate change policy.
