74% Informative

Conservative slogan “ Axe The Tax ” has resonated with Canadians , driven by the belief that the carbon tax has exacerbated the cost of living.

Canada has been sleepwalking through this policy issue for years , leaving the public narrative to carbon-tax-supporting academics and politicians who reassure Canadians that everything will improve as the economy decarbonizes.

A recent study highlights a glaring oversight: The federal government failed to assess how this policy would impact food security.
