As the pile-on mounts and provincial politicians — including Liberals — vow to join the fight, Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault is openly calling Poilievre a liar.
Poilievre is demanding that the government back off from its plan to raise the carbon price another $15 per tonne as scheduled on April 1."I'm giving Trudeau one last chance to spike his hike," Poilievre said Wednesday in speech to caucus members that was open to media. "The more we wait, the more we will suffer the impacts of climate change, the more Canadians will be impacted by heat domes, by forest fires, by flooding, by coastal erosions, by sea level rise."
"Cause I've been working on this for 30 years. That's all I've done as an adult, working on climate change. And there's no such measures lying around."They've struggled to explain to Canadians a complicated policy that makes the cost of buying fossil fuels gradually more expensive, even as the government sends rebates to households to offset those costs.
