Gradually, then suddenly

How does the saying go? Gradually, then suddenly?

  1. And “conservatives” will still be scared to death to call it the fraud it is, was and always will be.

  2. Huh.

    So, provincial governments were finally sent a copy of “Macroeconomics 101” and realized that tax burdens are a direct drag on economic growth and activity?

    Or did they just have someone explain one of the Iron Laws to them?: “You get more of what you reward and less of what you punish.”

    I’m too jaded to believe that this state of affairs will last for any significant amount of time.

  3. Wouldn’t scrapping a provincial program leave you in the hands of the Feds? I thought Fed didn’t apply
    if there was a provincial program….

  4. I get a kick out of B.C. when they say they are going to get rid of the consumer Carbon Tax.

    And then they go on saying that the Industrial Carbon tax stays on large Emitters as they have to “Pay Their Fare Share”

    What is a fair share when you are the only one paying the Industrial Carbon Tax.

    How can it be classed as a Fair Share when you are the only Share.

    Stupid

  5. “… facing tariffs and chaos in the world economy.”

    What the hell is she talking about? Your Canadian leaders have all insisted that the “world economy” will replace America as your primary trading partner. Europe and Communist China will become your primary trading partners. You’ve already replaced America because Orangemanbad.

    Ohhhh … so nowwww … you’re admitting that “the world” ain’t gonna EVER replace America as your primary trading partner … because “chaos” or something? Gawd you have the dumbest LIAR politicians ruining your country. You’re almost as bad as CA.

  6. The Effin NDP has only themselves to blame.

    The horrid Carbon Tax was “revenue neutral” when they took over. But, the greedy socialists changed that, and made it a revenue stream. A Tax Grab. Cry me a fucking river NDP. But, they will do as usual , punish everyone else for THEIR bad decisions.

    Here’s to the BCNDP going Full Commie, once and for all!

  7. The statement says that while the government is removing the carbon tax on people, it will continue to ensure big industrial emitters pay their fair share through the carbon-pricing system.

    Will China agree to B.C.’s carbon taxation without representation ?
