If anyone knows me, they know that I have been in the Financial Industry for a long time. It doesnt take a Mathematician to see that the Carbon Tax is a Scam!! And the time to speak up is now as the Liberals and the NDP will increase it on April 1
We have a plan. If you are against the 23% increase in the Carbon Tax you need to call or email your local Liberal and NDP MP’s
As of today March 20th, the Liberals and NDP voted for the increase, tomorrow March 21 the Conservatives are bringing forth a motion of “No confidence” According to an article by the CBC regarding the motion:
The government also levies HST on the carbon tax — income that goes into federal coffers.
The PBO has said Ottawa stands to gain about $600 million in the next fiscal year from this tax on a tax — funds that are not explicitly earmarked for climate initiatives.
The federal carbon tax was initially designed as a “backstop” measure that would only apply in provinces and territories that don’t have carbon prices of their own in place.
Now, after a number of provincial governments dismantled their pricing programs, the federal tax is applied in eight provinces. B.C. has its own carbon tax while Quebec has a cap-and-trade program.
Seven provincial premiers — including Liberal Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Andrew Furey — have asked Ottawa to stop the April 1 hike because of ongoing cost of living concerns.
“Premier Furey has always been clear that the federal carbon tax is not the appropriate instrument to mitigate climate change at this time,” said a spokesperson for the Liberal premier.
Other provincial Liberal leaders, including New Brunswick’s Susan Holt and Nova Scotia’s Zach Churchill, have also voiced opposition to the pending carbon tax hike.
BUT THE LIBERALS HAVE NO MONEY FOR INJURED VETERANS
Remember when Trudeau who told a disabled vet that was injured by a roadside explosion, that Veterans were asking more than the Government could give? But Trudeau did not have a problem giving money to a known terrorist. This Veteran said Trudeau turned his back on them.
Do you know how much a veteran gets? This is their compensation for fighting for our country. Can you imagine having the injuries that this veteran Brock Blaszczyk received and he has to fight for compensation.
When do the taxes end. The Carbon Tax will keep going up until 2030. What does this added tax mean for the average driver?
Hundreds of supporters attended the event in Halifax
Conservative Party of Canada Leader Pierre Poilievre in Halifax on Sunday. “On April Fools’ Day with Justin Trudeau and the NDP, the joke is on you — a 23 per cent carbon tax hike,” he said.
The current carbon-tax rate on gasoline in Nova Scotia is 14.31 cents per litre. Adding 3.3 cents represents an increase of 23 per cent.
Even Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston recently asked the federal government to cancel the carbon tax increase. How many Provinces have asked Trudeau to spike the hike?
The percentage of carbon in the atmosphere is 0.04% . Up from 0.03 % in the last few decades. If it drops below 0.02% PLANT LIFE starts to die off . And Canada contributes 1.5% of the 0.04 % . Where is the carbon tax monies going?
Canada has one of the largest carbon sinks and forests in the world.
– Estimated 9000 trees per person In Canada.
– One mature tree consumes average 48 lbs of Carbon per year.
– Estimated 4100 lbs of Carbon produced per person each year in Canada
– 1 Hectare of trees can absorb 5 times the C02 a average car produces per year
– There is estimated 347,000,000 Hectares of trees in Canada.
According to National Geographic:
As the world seeks to slow the pace of climate change, preserve wildlife, and support more than 8 billion people, trees inevitably hold a major part of the answer. Yet we still see the mass destruction of trees—deforestation—. Sacrificing the long-term benefits of standing trees for short-term gain of fuel, and materials for manufacturing and construction.
We need trees for a variety of reasons, they absorb the carbon dioxide we exhale and the heat-trapping greenhouse gases that human activities emit. As those gases enter the atmosphere, global warming increases, a trend scientists now prefer to call climate change.
There is also the imminent danger of disease caused by deforestation. An estimated 60 percent of emerging infectious diseases come from animals, and a major cause of viruses’ jump from wildlife to humans is habitat loss, often through deforestation.
