Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : But is it true that axing the tax necessarily means axing the rebates?
54% : On the other hand, if our largest trading partner, the U.S., isn't going to price carbon, maybe axing the tax makes sense.
54% : And if you look only at the tax and the rebates, Ottawa is probably right: the rebates in large part offset the tax.
