I paid $960 extra on my gasoline last year and $550 extra for natural gas. In total i payed an extra $3100 in carbon tax last year. All i got back was $350. Everyone i talked to is paying way more than getting back.

How can any human being with a conscience still support the Liberals ? How is it possible ?

4:17 “The government disagrees with the independent auditor general, so you should just believe the government.” — how Orwellian lol

This dude was visibly angry that Vassy was having none of his "what aboutism."

You can call a bag of horse turds a bag of chocolates, but it still doesn't change what's inside.

Can this guy answer a question with anything other than “.. but the conservatives..”?!?

[donnarocha]

Pierre Poilievre definitely has my vote, I love common sense. Stop the carbon tax for ALL Canadians. Stop the division against Canadians, I love Canada 🇨🇦

How much did it cost tax payers to change the name of the program?

[jaytrivedi]

So basically this shows he doesn't know anything on how this tax has implications

[FionaBlacksecondhandonline]

If you get the money back why do they take there tax, I would like a complete breakdown on where’s its being spent on.

Just when I thought you couldn't find someone less likeable than Justin Trudeau....

[michaelbooth]

Vassy he says no one doubts LAMO everyone doubts. Trudeau needs a new salesman, this guy is horrible at it.

[TripleJDigs]

I’m looking forward to the rebranding of the federal government to the Conservative Party of Canada

[grandmufftwerkin]

Will they rebrand ArriveCan to make it all better? 🙃

[frankd]

20.6 % of eligible voters casted their vote in favour of Liberals last election.
I’m sure that has dropped significantly since then

8 out of 10 canadians are better off with the climate rebate, but
over half the country wants it removed or stopped for three years. 😂🤣
