“She is ready to make difficult decisions to meet our emissions targets and make sure big polluters pay for their outsized emissions. But she will not fight Canadians on a policy they have been clear, they do not support,” the source tells CTV News. “That’s why Chrystia Freeland will replace the consumer carbon price with a system that will work within our federation and will be developed collaboratively with provinces and territories.”

Your move Carney.
No wonder the Liberal core is fighting so hard to get Carney in. All their ideological plans that they implemented under Trudeau are being burned to the ground by Freeland.
The Liberal leadership race is now about the carbon tax. I honestly think that the Liberal party is completely fractured with two major camps infighting on core ideological values within the party. Is there possibility of a breakup?
Unfortunately, Freeland's own record on carbon tax is extremely poor. To back out of it now after everything that she did on it while toeing the party line, to the major detriment of provinces and Canadians, is going to be a hard sell to Canadians should she make it as leader. She refused to work collaboratively with provinces and territories in 2023 at time when cost of living and inflation worries was at its peak when she could and now claiming she will work with them. The lack of working collaboratively with provinces was a good part on her.

She cannot distance herself away from what she did.
