The Bait and Switch Liberals

Blacklock’s- Guilbeault Turns On Fuel Tax

Guilbeault made his remarks while endorsing the Liberal Party leadership campaign of Mark Carney, former Bank of Canada governor. The future of the carbon tax was uncertain, he said.

“I will continue to work with Mr. Carney to ensure that if we don’t go ahead with the consumer carbon price, that we have something else in place that will both help Canadians with affordability but will also help us to achieve our 2030 targets,” said Guilbeault.

  1. This is the biggest scam in the Lieberal playbook. There is no such thing as “consumer” carbon price. It’s all assessed and collected at the production. All this will do is not allow the tax be identified as a separate line item. The consumer will still be the one paying for all of it.

  2. “if we don’t go ahead with the consumer carbon price, that we have something else in place”

    A pile of shit by any other name is still a pile of shit.

  3. Who the fart gives a rip about “our” 2030 targets? They aren’t the Canadian people’s targets, they’re the looney left retahds targets.

  4. If it’s all just because of disinformation that PP is spreading, and it’s working so well, why are they fleeing from it like rats?

    You don’t have to answer that.

  5. Their intention is to tax us into poverty. The solution is to vote for the other guys. If that doesn’t work we an either get more kinetic or starve and freeze to death in the dark.

  6. A vote for Carney is s vote for Gibeault. There are now three people running to be the leader of the Liberal Party. What are the odds none of them will state on record that they will ditch Gibeault and his visionary policies?

    1. In the great global green theocracy, Carney is a Cardinal while Guilbeault is a lowly Bishop. He’s sucking up to the LPC’s next coronation. Carney’s, “A kingdom for me and serfdom for thee” Canada.

  7. Broken record here. Didn’t Canadians send a clear message to the current government at the time when they replaced tariffs/duties with the GST? What happened to that Canada?

    1. GST (goods and services) replaced VAT (value added tax). It covered more stuff and was supposed to be revenue neutral and “more fair”. The same thing should happen to energy taxes: remove it from gasoline and such and put it on electricity. Keep it revenue neutral and it captures more people (urbanites). Not everybody uses gasoline but everybody uses electricity. That would be more fair.

  8. When will anyone ask Gullible about the 254 million dollars that his private company received from the STDC fund? Embezzlement anyone?

  9. Might be interesting to look up the relationship between Mark Carney and UK’s Labour PM Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves the Labour Chancellor of the Exchequer. Carney’s politics are very similar (identical?) to the UK Labour party – Deep green on climate, woke authoritarian, mass immigration, anti- petroleum, net zero policies, etc.

    Another feature of Starmer’s election was that the Labour Party straight up lied to the voters. They broke all of their promises after they won the election which is why Starmer’s popularity is nearly as low as Justin Trudeau’s. I suspect that Carney and the Liberal Party will use the same tactic – lie and promise whatever voters want to hear then break every promise because once they have power they can do whatever they want.

    I think that’s why Liberals like Guillbeault and Fraser are supporting Carney. They know that Carney, like Starmer, has no intention of keeping any promises he makes to voters. Election promises are not binding contracts.

    1. More than that in Starmer’s case. He was the one as head of Crown Prosecution Services who was letting grooming gangs run rampant in the early 2010s. And it came back to bite him again when he mishandled the problems in Southport as badly as he did. So the deep hatred of him by the British public has has its roots in severe sexual abuse, crimes and rape gangs by migrants on a large basis.

      That’s much, much worse than anything the federal Liberals in Canada have done.

    2. Thank you for providing some information about Carney’s behavior and associations while in Britain. Such information will not likely be found anywhere else. Thanks again.

    3. cgh : Yes, the Labour Party and Starmer’s negligence regarding the abuse of children is unforgivable. There’s nothing worse, imo. Progressives are weird. They’ll have a complete meltdown if a person is misgendered, or someone expresses a mildly offensive comment to an upper class female MP but the horrific abuse of working class children for decades is no big deal to them.

      Cryptic cynic: the Canadian media will report nothing that reflects badly on Carney. He’s their new meal ticket.

  10. Re-naming the carbon tax will be good enough for very stupid Liberal racist Party voters.

    Warm feelings of self-righteous bigotry and hatred mean more to them than money.

  11. No matter where the tax is applied, in the end the canadian taxpayer has to pay it, and in the case of the carbon tax, it gets paid multiple times, getting hidden in the price before it lands on the average canadian.

    We also know that the proposed Net-Zero Growth policies of the Liberal party, will continue to hollow out the middle class, while benefiting the connected.

  12. Few voters are going to buy it when the Liberals turf what was the main plank at the very core of their policies for nine years. Few are going to support politicians who are that insincere and come off as having multiple personality disorder.

  13. The #Libranos have not backed down on the carbon tax for the X number of years they’ve promoted it… only for the most recent month when their polling numbers were so low they couldn’t be ignored.
    It was NEVER on the table until The Turd™ said he was resigning, and then didn’t quite do that.

    It smacks/smells totally of desperation, and without their outstanding polling numbers they wouldn’t be considering this. When any of them issue a 4 page letter saying they’re going to remain a lifelong #Librano but they are not going to run in the next election, it’s because they’ve confirmed the polling numbers in their own ridings.

    Anyone considering a run as a #Librano in the coming election should take a good look at the local polling numbers, and gauge if the expenditures and endless handshaking is worth garnering a 3k votes result while the winning candidate will expect 12k – 25k and probably behind the local NDP stalwart.

    It’s bleak for them, that’s why the carbon tax is on the table. Only a complete idiot would say it’s no problem and we can gain this tax another 100 ways. They can’t tax anyone if they’re not in gov’t. I expect in any number of years when they return to gov’t, they’ll bring back this tax and say “we have to do this” … but it hopefully won’t be AB/Sask.’s problem, it’ll be on Ontario or wherever and they’ll have some hard decisions to make.

  14. Is Gibbiles even going to win his seat? He’s not superannuated . Losing will look good on him

  15. Mark Carney told Jon Stewart that the oil industry’s production is the source of most of Canada’s emissions. That is not true.
    It is consumption that creates by far the most emissions, but this just means that Carney wants to bury the tax by putting it on oil and gas companies. They will pass it along, but that makes it less visible, while making our industry even less competitive with the American one, at a time when Trump wants to stimulate oil and gas activity and reduce energy costs. Carney is a snake whose anti carbon activism makes him unsuitable to be PM of Canada.
