Canadian Candidate Considers Adding Carbon Tax to Platform. By Mike De Souza, CanWest News Service, May 12, 2008. "Liberal leader Stephane Dion... is publicly musing about introducing a carbon tax as a key plank of his platform to address both environmental and economic issues at the same time. Stealing pages from the B. C. government and the federal Green party, Mr. Dion's Liberals have indicated that they are considering the new tax... But in order to be successful at the ballot box, Mr. Dion would have to fend off federal Conservatives who are already circling with criticism that the Liberals merely want to gouge Canadian taxpayers for more money, without any concrete benefits."
