Mark Carney

[Herman]

Trusting the Liberals on carbon taxes is like Charlie Brown trusting Lucy is going to hold the football for him.

Liberal leader and prime-minister designate Mark Carney, having been the world's leading corporate lobbyist for global carbon taxes for years, now says he's scrapping outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's "consumer carbon tax."

But what he's doing is folding it into Trudeau's industrial carbon tax and adding a second carbon tax — a tariff that Canadians will pay on many imported goods — misleadingly described as a "border adjustment mechanism."

But that's just one example of how the Liberals have misled Canadians not only about carbon taxes but about what they have accomplished.
