Consumption taxes, such as carbon taxes, are actually OK if you reduce the income taxes to offset. Consumption taxes can change behavior vs. a blanket income tax. (Inexplicably, he reduced GST (another consumption tax)... so he's not thinking deeply about tax theory or anything at all really)
Trudeau planned to continue to increase carbon taxes by 200% higher than they are today. Also compare gasoline prices from the US to Canada.
