HAHAHAHAHAH
You can't even make this up if you tried, it's so absurd. NDP pretending to suddenly be against the carbon tax they continuously propped up including March 21 of this year in defense of it, and only now trying to distance itself from it. They can't say what their plan is because they have not made one yet, but need to say something now to salvage Monday's byelection.
C'mon NDP supporters have at it. Explain your way out of this one.

"Our commitment is we have to fight this climate crisis with everything we have," Singh told reporters at a campaign event at Universite de Sherbrooke.
Singh has accused Trudeau throughout the campaign of giving large carbon emitters exemptions and letting them off the hook. The NDP leader has positioned his party as the one most concerned about the environment and has criticized Trudeau's climate strategy as being too soft on big polluters.
...
Singh said the Liberals' strategy is not good enough to tackle the climate crisis. He said the NDP will make the carbon tax more fair and roll back loopholes. But the NDP's plan has been criticized for lacking detail.

“Our position on fighting the climate crisis has not changed. We believe absolutely in a price on pollution, but we also believe the price has to be fair, and right now the Liberals are not making a fair plan. They’re saying big polluters get bigger and bigger profits and working class people get nothing. That is wrong,” Singh said ahead of question period.

NDP's position has been pretty consistent. Yes they supported the current Liberal carbon policy indirectly through the Confidence and Supply agreement, but again that is the lesser of two evils than the CPC doing nothing on the climate change front. But the NDP have been saying they don't agree with the current set up for a lot longer than today.
