How carbon tax works. Follow me on my adventure…

Pretend there are 5 people living in Canada and this is what they make annually:

Gertrude: $500,000
William: $400,000
Suzy: $50,000
Spencer: $40,000
Dwight: $30,000

Gertrude and William own all the stores and sell grocery, clothes and industrial supplies to Suzy, Spencer and Dwight.

This is what these 5 will pay in Carbon Tax:

Gertrude: $5000
William: $4,000
Suzy: $800
Spencer: $600
Dwight: $500

This is will be their ‘rebates’:

Gertrude: $0
William: $0
Suzy: $850
Spencer: $630
Dwight: $520

Suzy, Spencer and Dwight love the carbon tax. They got more money back than they paid (so they think). It’s like a lottery. Super awesome.

Gertrude and William got screwed.

The Supreme Emperor who invented the carbon tax, doesn’t care about Gertrude and William though. He just needs the support of the other three to stay in power.

The Supreme Emperor also knows that like him, Suzy, Spencer and Dwight aren’t very good at math and can’t figure out that their entire cost of living has increased, because Gertrude and William just raised the price of everything because the Carbon Tax made their cost of doing business more expensive. Because they pay more carbon tax and don’t get a rebate.

Suzy, Spencer and Dwight keep voting for the Supreme Emperor, because they like ‘free money’.

Gertrude and William vote to have the Supreme Emperor removed from power and Suzy, Spenser and Dwight get upset. They don’t understand why Gertrude and William despise the Supreme Emperor who gives out free money like candy.

The thing is… Suzy, Spenser and Dwight don’t even know that Gertrude and William don’t get a rebate and had to increase prices on everything, because they only watch CBC.

The End.

Canada spent 54 Million on the ArriveCan app that actually cost $170,00-$255,000. Where did the 53+million go? Who got paid? Who provided the App? Who authored the expenditure? Who is directly stealing from Canada?

I am watching Jason Kenny on tv. He brought up a great point. Remember when Trudeau said he was willing to bring Terrorists back to Canada from Syria. Trudeau said a Canadian is a Canadian. With regards to the Truckers he said the "Anti Vaxxers Should not be tolerated."

Justin Trudeau's policies don't affect the inventory of grocery stores?

But Justin Trudeau's tax plan controls the climate?

It all makes sense.

Well, that aged well.

Take @JustinTrudeau's advice and #ThankATrucker

This is amazing. Watch this and RT it.

Somedays I wonder if the Heritage Minister is even aware that law professors and other stakeholders have taken the time to provide detailed concerns about the many flaws in Bill C-10. His answers in question period today suggest he is unaware.

[Andrew Lawton @AndrewLawton]

Remember when you banned me from covering your campaign, then had police detain me for trying? Or when your party had another city‘s police remove me from a public event? Or when your foreign minister blocked me from her media freedom press conference? That one was my favorite.

I am currently watching an @F1 race. I never, ever, would have done this before becoming addicted to the Netflix series. And I am surely far from alone on that. Lesson for sports leagues everywhere: providing access to allow for good storytelling is good for business.

Shellenberger: Renewables are bad for the environment, new research confirms. Wind and solar would require 300-400 times more land than nukes or natural gas plants:

Today Canada is in 43rd  place globally in “total vaccines per 100 people”.  Just 2.5% of Canadians have been fully vaccinated. Question: will a single dose protect us against the double-mutant strain now being flown into Canada?

Close the Airport.

[Brian Lilley @brianlilley]

We can’t go to a local restaurant in Toronto or drive to another province but flights can come and go - with COVID infected passengers- from around the world and ⁦@JustinTrudeau⁩ thinks it all great. Makes no sense to me. You? Read & RT #cdnpoli https://t.co/aZDF7lzet7

The truth is that the Trudeau Liberal government regards thousands of deaths as a “political opportunity.” https://t.co/axREqH2QiH

[Critical Elite Theory @grumblinghive]

How is keeping international travel open & locking down domestically not conspiratorial? Can anyone explain this?

He is a clueless flake. Quit.

[Carlo Colaiacovo @CarloColaiacovo]

Why are we allowing 36k people to fly in to our province? And why are we paying the price for it by being locked down but we won’t shut down the airports?

[Cory Morgan @CoryBMorgan]

What kind of carbon taxes do Russia and Saudia Arabia have?

Has the world stopped buying their products for lack of one?

Did Canada's carbon tax protect us from Biden's pipeline stoppage?

Social license?

Mythical.

It's just a tax & it wont save the environment

This is insane but what it suggests is worse: They've decided it's too late to stop the more contagious Brazil variant & it's already spreading throughout Canada, not just in BC: Ottawa drops specific COVID-19 screening for travellers from Brazil https://t.co/kvIBpJ4og9 #cdnpoli
