Trudeau Defends Carbon Tax Policy Amid Calls for Election on Climate Action

#carbontax #pierrepoilievre #justintrudeau

Trudeau firmly defends Canada's carbon tax, stating that Canadians have already decided on this issue by electing his government multiple times. In response to Pierre Poilievre's demand for a "carbon tax election," Trudeau emphasized that the fight against climate change is essential for building a strong economy, and the majority of Canadians support this view. Poilievre, however, argues that the carbon tax is unconstitutional and damaging to sectors like healthcare and farming, citing its impact on rising costs for snowplows, ambulances, and hospital heating. As the New Brunswick premier takes Trudeau to court over the tax, the debate intensifies. Is Trudeau’s carbon tax plan still what Canadians want, or will opposition voices gain momentum?
