RE: Report says carbon taxes in B.C. and Alberta ‘failed’ in not lowering emissions.No, it didn’t. .I live on Vancouver Island and have no idea where you might have discovered this idea. All the carbon taxes do is increase the cost of everything. Every single thing. Making things more costly is not seen as a boosted economic activity. Only environmental radicals and so-called “economists” might think so..Rather than encouraging, supporting and assisting us to buy local or seek lower energy consumption alternatives, the Trudeau/Horgan Carbon Taxes are seen as punishment. Punishment just for living in Canada or in B.C. I bought my KIA partly because it was made in South Korea. Where is my medal for keeping pollution in Canada down?.The B.C. Carbon Tax does not boost economic activity, it reduces it. The current practice of taking money away with carbon taxes and the giving it back in the form of some “rebate” is beyond ignorant. Trudeau’s statement of getting back more than Canadians are charged is amazingly stupid. Why not just give Canadians the difference?.Del Rokosh.,.Parksville, B.C.
