Also I’m pretty certain we started paying the carbon tax before any refunds were issued…maybe I’m wrong.

The complainers ruined the Carbon tax in advance. You used to get the full year of Carbon tax when you filled your taxes in March. So 9 of 12 months in advance. But because people are stupid and were claiming that they didn’t get carbon tax rebates they decided to split in into 4 payments. Those payments start in April each year so we no longer get carbon tax rebated in advance.
As to the gas bill when you buy a furnace or do windows or insulation project or make the decision to buy a heat pump the carbon tax improves the payout rate of these investments.
