Danielle Smith blasts Trudeau for ‘crippling’ carbon tax driving Canadians families into poverty
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith disputed the false claim that rebates offset the increased cost of fuel for Canadians under the prime minister’s carbon tax scheme.
“Prime Minister- Canadians don’t believe this,” Smith responded.
“Your carbon tax is crippling us, making everything more expensive. The cost of fuel, less food in the shopping cart, and extra fees on our utility bills,” she continued.
“Even your own Parliamentary Budget Officer confirms that this tax will devastate Canada’s economy, costing billions and pushing families further into hardship,” Smith revealed. “This tax needs to go.”
