Hi John,
You have a chance to fight Carney’s hidden carbon tax.
The federal government just released its latest budget. In the budget, the government promises to “strengthen” the industrial carbon tax.
Taxpayers know what that means: Make life more expensive for Canadians.
The budget also said the industrial carbon tax will be part of a “multi-decade industrial carbon price trajectory.”
That’s more political jargon. What it really means is “keep making life more expensive.”
That’s how the consumer carbon tax worked too. The government made you pay more by hiking the tax every year.
The government will likely say this tax will only cost businesses, but taxpayers like you know any carbon tax on businesses is also a carbon tax that will cost regular Canadians.
Carbon taxes on fuel refineries make gasoline and diesel more expensive, carbon taxes on utilities make home heating and electricity more expensive and carbon taxes on fertilizer plants increase costs for farmers and that makes food cost more.
Signing the petition to fight hidden carbon taxes is your first step in stopping this expensive tax.
This fight is heating up. By signing the petition, you’ll be the first to know when it’s time to take action.

I know news like this terrible federal budget can be disheartening. I’m angry too. But taxfighters like you beat the consumer carbon tax and we can beat this hidden industrial carbon tax too!
Thanks for stepping up and fighting for taxpayers – it’s making a difference!
