The federal policy is $20 a ton that caps at $50 in 2020. BC wouldn't care less about it.
Quebec had a cap-and-trade system since 2013.
Neither province had to change anything to be compliant with the federal policy, they already exceeded it. So neither province would care at all if there was one policy across the board. Less taxes for them, more tax money. Yeah, I'm sure that they would hate that..

Not sure how you think they won't care about less tax money but ok I guess. Surely Quebec never complains when their tax power gets taken away.
