Immediate impact of dropping consumer carbon tax

The consumer carbon tax is gone for now and it means some instant savings at the pump, but some economists wonder if Canadians are really better off.

Thank you Pierre for forcing the Liberals to do this! I am definitely voting Conservative!!!

[lornequick]

Thank Poilievre and the
Boots, not Suits

[lisacouto]

Pierre was right. Except carnage stole his idea. The difference will be that Pierre will remove the entire thing. Carney is a liar and is corrupt. It’s conservative❤❤❤

[gordyt]

Stations in Vancouver were sneaky - they saw this coming and hiked prices right before the tax was axed.

[Greg-cltl]

Well well well, Pierre has been saying this for a long time and look at the results. Carney just paused it, what it really needs is to be abolished along with the Liberals.

[mattwiggins]

Only reason Carney dropped it down was to try to take votes away from Pierre. My family should be saving 100 a month. And we don't even drive much.

[jeffspicolli]

And all along these Liberals have been saying the carbon tax isn't making life unaffordable.

[Johndoe-smlk]

A pause on the carbon tax?? So after he's elected (he wont be) he would reinstate but with no rebate cheques 😅 grimey.

[Waylon]

Never voting Liberal again, this time I’ll be voting BLUE

[Riptide]

if Danielle Smith were to apply a tariff on oil & gas to the USA.. ...then prices will go right back up

[Bigup]

Thank you Pierre! You have been right all along! Vote Conservative!

[crystalidx]

The Irony of the Situation: Carbon Tax Carney created the law, and also repealed the law.

[vickyvain]

Thank you Pierre for forcing Carney's hand!

[Stoich]

Thank you Pierre!
AXE THE TAX

Bring it home

VOTE CONSERVATIVE

[BlueTeamRedTeam]

I can’t belive that taking the Corbin tax off actually reduced prices, just like Poilievre said it would. He didn’t even need to plagiarize a PhD to have the ability to predict this.

[georgesingh]

Oh cool..does that means groceries will go down due to low fuel prices?

[BigCulpLarge]

Someone copied others' homework and tried to claim it was his own.

[dogoftheg]

Plagiarism isn’t just limited to Oxford papers written by Mark Carney. Thanks Pierre Poilievre!!

[metalrock]

Chetan is hilarious, that measly check I get from the government once a year is nothing compared to the savings of not having to pay that tax.

[Canada_Dominium]

Conservatives: Drop the carbon tax! We need the money!
Ottawa: Drops the carbon tax
Conservatives: This is a trap!
