The truth is, Conservatives hate the carbon tax because it is progressive and returns the revenue back to Canadians directly, not corporations. They dislike the fact that carbon taxes are not an upward wealth redistribution scheme, or a form of trickle down.

It's "dishonest to sell a
#carbontax as a “price” (n. Liberal for tax) on pollution."#RexMurphyhttps://nationalpost.com/opinion/rex-murphy-how-the-liberal-carbon-tax-is-not-unlike-a-2000-cat-door … -
We start by revolting against truturds
#CarbonTax#Canada. Once we achieve this we remove@JustinTrudeau and arrest him for treason and fraud .#Alberta we need to ban together now -
Per capita? Per unit GDP? Just saying "they are going up" is kind of vague. Almost seems like searching for data to confirm a predetermined conclusion. Remember Carole James? The
#carbontax is popular in BC.@andrewsheer should check his advisors and get on board. -
Thanks
@ABDanielleSmith for speaking with us on Alberta radio about#carbontax. BC has the highest carbon tax in Canada & our CO2 emissions are going UP@770CHQR Don’t fall for the carbon tax - it’s not working in BC. Here’s costs & the budget doc showing ‘revenue neutral’ trickpic.twitter.com/s060ThzvnA

Yes we already pay
#carbontax and much like the water tax, FG want to charge us twice or more. -
CO2 Tax works well in Finland
and during last decade CO2 per kWh produced has declined by 59% to 105 g/kWh, which is 1/7 of the US level of 743 g CO2 emissions per kWh electricity produced. #CarbonTax Source (US): EPA emission factor 2016 pic.twitter.com/opgSoGj5P1

I don't want to pay more in taxes, but I also don't want to die of
#ClimateChange. Economists say a#carbontax is the most efficient and least costly way to help fund the transition to a#zerocarbon economy. And Trudeau is offering a rebate to offset the cost of the tax!https://twitter.com/PennyGill3/status/1080990935071248385 … -
They always move the goalposts. Everyday people are struggling to make ends meet here largely because of our insane taxes & fees & the thinking that leads to them. We pay
#carbontax largely at the pump & on our natural gas bills & on everything we need trucked to us. Most things. https://twitter.com/o_retired/status/1081411501439692800 … -
Emissions of CO2 are going up in British Columbia even though we have the highest carbon tax in all of Canada. BC government stats posted online before Christmas show a rising trend.

#CarbonTax only works if it's applied in a uniform way to EVERY country globally! https://twitter.com/journo_dale/status/1080965769926631424 … -
The
#GreenNewDeal is the way it is because we recognize we can't urgently#ActOnClimate simply using a flat#CarbonTax (i.e.,#ClimateAusterity). To act with speed, we need substantial public investment & to ensure those who benefitted most from the carbon economy pay the most. -
Danced around the new tax on people.
#CarbonTax yes it’s a new way to tax people. -
Can someone please explain to me how they think a revenue neutral
#CarbonTax can reduce emissions? Cause this honestly just seems like the biggest shell game. -
Can a
#CarbonTax provide incentive for countries to establish a domestic carbon pricing mechanism & coordinate measures to obtain regional & global pockets of heightened environmental protection?

Fully support
#CarbonTAX I don't want it, but I like the idea of trying to save my grandchildren. https://twitter.com/gmbutts/status/1080833866322071552 … -
Imagine if all the people supporting a
#carbontax provided some leadership and decided to voluntarily reduce their use of fossil fuels by 50%. They could save the planet! But instead they won't do a thing unless they can force everyone to have their world view.#cdnpoli#abpoli
