Climate Alarmism Fail: Justin Trudeau’s Signature ‘Carbon Tax’ Is Rejected by Majority of Voters, as Canadian Families Struggle Financially
Globalist poster boy, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the climate alarmist policies the signature aspect of his government.
So it’s very embarrassing that these very policies, exemplified by the vastly unpopular ‘carbon tax’, are now one of the most pointed topics generating criticism of his premiership.
It has now arisen that a majority of Canadians want the tax to be scrapped or waived for the next three years.
This follows the announcement last month that ‘a three-year carbon tax exemption for home heating oil’ and a ‘higher carbon tax rebates’ would be implemented, mostly for Atlantic Canada regions amid soaring costs of living.
The premiers of other provinces presented an united front demanding similar concessions.
Reuters reported:
“The latest opinion poll from Angus Reid Institute ‘reveals a profound lack of awareness, and misconceptions’ about how much tax Canadians pay, the institute said. The poll showed 42% of Canadians want the carbon tax to be scrapped and a further 17% would like it to be cut temporarily for the next three years, while one-quarter want a freeze in any subsequent increases.
