You do realize that the rebate for small businesses wasn't paid back for years, and even now hasn't been fully rebated?

How exactly should a small business absorb that extra cost without passing it on?

Your fancy studies don't account for the bungle of a mess that the Liberals made in implementing the program.

Yes, if everything is managed properly, the carbon tax can be a straight across driver in reducing emissions, but not if they don't actually pay back what they said they would. Then its just a tax that = higher costs that are just being passed on.
