Subhead:Despite Mark Carney touting his elimination of the consumer carbon tax, most Canadians agree that at least some of the industrial carbon tax is ultimately passed down to consumers.#
A new Leger poll released by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) reveals what most Canadians already know from their grocery bills and gas receipts: carbon taxes on industry hit consumers hardest.
According to the poll, 70 per cent of Canadians believe businesses pass on “most” or “some” of the cost of the industrial carbon tax to consumers. Just nine per cent bought into Liberal leader Mark Carney’s claim that corporations absorb the brunt of the tax.
