Goalposts Move Again, Another Even Bigger Carbon Tax Needed Says PBO

It’s never enough.

The Trudeau Carbon Tax – which is quite unpopular – is an example of the ole ‘foot-in-the-door’ technique.

First, the government gets people paying the carbon tax.

Then, once people are used to the continuing tax grab, the tax get raised over and over and over again, until more and more of our money is taken away from us and put under the control of the politicians – with devastating economic consequences.

That’s why the carbon tax must be fought and defeated now, before it’s too late.

And now, there’s even more evidence that the goalposts are being moved once again.

The Parliamentary Budget Office says that if the Liberals actually want to hit their Paris Climate target, they will need to impose another larger carbon tax on top of the current tax.

Not only that, but they will also need to keep raising the current one – as is currently planned.

So, the $20 per tonne carbon tax will turn into a $50 a tonne carbon tax plus another carbon tax that reaches $50 a tonne by 2030.

Funny how that works…

The socialists who have stolen the label of ‘environmentalists’ are obsessed with putting the government in control of everything, and the carbon tax is a useful way for them to do that.

You’ll notice how everything they tell us ‘must be done’ is never enough.

First we need a carbon tax. Then we need a bigger carbon tax. Then we need two carbon taxes. Then the Paris targets aren’t enough. Then we need higher targets. Then we need more carbon taxes to reach those higher targets. Then those targets won’t be enough. And on and on and on.

The more we give, the more they want to take.

That’s why we should give nothing. No carbon tax. No destructive economic policies. Let us keep our own money, let us make our own decisions. Let us be free.
