Literally everything you're saying is a conservative talking point:
1) Canada isn't the problem (we can't fix the problem so why bother doing our part)
2) It's all China's fault
3) The carbon tax is stupid
4) Trudeau is just virtue signaling/greedy/whatever other insult you want to throw that way
As to whether or not the bolded part is true, I guess it is obvious, provided you actually don't know much about the carbon tax.
As to why we are arguing about it, I'm mostly arguing about it because you clearly don't understand much about it, so I'm mostly just pointing out all of the ways you are very clearly wrong, or just ignoring reality to get out of accepting that Canada has some responsibility in global emissions.
Is it a perfect system, no, that's the only obvious part, and I'll debate that back and forth with folks all day.
You however are mostly just putting your fingers in your ears and saying "Nuh Uh, China is the problem".
