Canada’s carbon tax aims to make flying too expensive

Carbon Tax designed to make flying too expensive for most Canadians.

Totally not –> Green Totalitarianism <– at all.

~{ sigh }~

============================

Canadian PM Mark Carney wants to restrict people’s ability to fly by driving up taxes on air travel.

“We should be taking into account the impact of our flying on the planet.”

“You push up the tax on flying, you push up the cost on transport,
and that’s – in part – what putting a price on carbon is.”
