OTTAWA—Climate policies are reducing Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions, and industrial carbon pricing is the single biggest driver, according to new analysis by the Canadian Climate Institute.

The paper, Which Canadian climate policies will have the biggest impact by 2030?, features the first rigorous analysis attributing emissions reductions to collective and individual climate policies. It examines, first, how policies implemented to date have affected Canada’s emissions trajectory and, second, how major climate policies are expected to impact emissions between 2025 and 2030.

By 2030, industrial carbon pricing (which includes various types of large-emitter trading systems) is projected to contribute between 23 and 39 per cent (or 53 to 90 Mt) of avoided emissions from all policies implemented to date. And between now and 2030, these large-emitter trading systems—such as Ontario’s emissions performance standard or Alberta’s TIER system—will do more than any other policy to cut emissions, delivering between 20 and 48 per cent of emissions reductions expected from Canada’s Emissions Reductions Plan moving forward.......

I'm not finding a single source that backs up that assertion. Wiki, the UN, ecofiscal, Canadian climate institute, smart prosperity institute...all confirm reduced emissions.

Perhaps you are thinking of (and propagating) the myth that has led people to wrongly believe it hasn't as illustrated by a few opinion polls.

Evidence please. That shows that Canada's carbon emissions have reduced and that that reduction is attributable to the carbon tax that Trudeau introduced, and not others things.

No, but the BC NDP claimed they observed it happening.

Quote:

The NDP said voters are telling NDP door-knockers they intend to vote for Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, in the upcoming provincial election or that they want to vote Prime Minister Justin Trudeau out of office.

So you can make an assertion without a reference to a single source but you ask for evidence for my assertion that references a bunch of sources.

Yes, that's fair.

I think Doug Ford has realized and is positioning himself as the conservative not aligned with Trump; the pro-Canada conservative.

MOGA?

There was a poll before Trudeau resigned where Carney was even less popular than Freeland. And neither got more than about 20% of the votes.

By the time we get an election the economy will probably be in such a mess that people will be voting for Trump.

Ford isn't entirely without scandal and issues, and he hopes by calling an early election those things are sort of in the background, als long as Trump is doing his tariff thing the public's mind is set.

They should rather think how they address the tariff issue at the border rather than calling an early election, - and Ford already does have a mandate for that. Tariff less trade at the border between Canada and the US is around 40 years old, this is how long the two economies are connected.

I don't think the US has even the infrastructure in place to collect the tariffs?. Trained customs officers? Forms to fill out? Bills to be paid? Where and when? right at the border?I think what's possibly going to happen is that this may result in a legal row as well. After all, in a supply chain economy between Canada and the US, US investment is also affected by this. What are investors in the US going to say and how are they going to react if their business investment isn't showing the performance they expect?

It's possible that these tariffs are to be ruled illegal. However that might be a long legal battle, and to Trump it'll be personal, it's about a "strong man's ego" behing hurt.
