"Canada actually had a grand bargain back in 2015: 'you build this #TMX Pipeline & we'll be okay with a #CarbonPrice AND an #EmissionsCap.' Well so much for all that, right? We shouldn't trust these grand bargains for #Pipelines & I very much doubt the #IndustrialCarbonTax is going to fill the gap."
Are we really MOVING BACKWARDS on #ClimateChange in Canada in spite of the hottest years on record & the worst #WILDFIRES and #SMOKE we've ever seen? We dig in with #CAPE & the Hub's own Dr Joe Vipond & #CANRAC 's Caroline Brouillette

4/8 The big question: the oil & gas cap.
The #Carney #Budget2025 didn't scrap it, but Thurton reports it "placed conditions which if implemented would make the controversial policy unnecessary".
The caveats: deploying #CarbonCapture at scale and bolstering the #Industrial #CarbonPrice.

Despite the Canada Carbon Rebate’s effectiveness, Canada’s major political parties are willing to scrap it because it’s not politically rewarding.

Hmmm. Could we impose export tariffs on gas, coal, etc? That might cut into the fossil fuel companies' profits. Which would be a pity.

In the middle of a trade war, this is one tariff the world really needs, and Australia should take the lead
Carbon tariffs are back on the agenda in Australia, and that’s a good thing. It could help mobilise hundreds of billions of new investment.
