Isn't it listed as a surcharge to defray the carbon tax? That's a reasonable line item to include on a bill, much as you get a fuel surcharge despite the fact that it doesn't necessarily correlate to your share of the fuel costs for the flight. It's, "we have to pay for this thing, and we're passing the cost on to you by charging you $X in addition to what we would otherwise charge if we didn't have to pay it... but we're also telling you that we're doing that rather than just including it as part of the overall price." Nothing remotely misleading about that.
