Now that we have technology, I am waiting for the the two mile high ice caps and the seas to rise 400 feet...

...Again.

If it's so called 'climate change', what's the plan if the change is for colder?

Haven't you been paying attention? The global climate "thermostat" is controlled by carbon dioxide...which we apparently would have complete control over if you would just cooperate and buy into the new religion. You're holding up our ability to control the weather.

So does this also mean that the provincial carbon taxes are also constitutional?

Listening to Ralph Goodale try and sell this albatross by declaring that everyone is going to get more money back than they pay, it's obvious this strategy is based on Trudeau math...2 subtract 1 equals... uhhh ... umm... 1.5.
Never mind the math, if everyone is getting back more than they pay, how exactly will a carbon tax reduce emissions? If I have more disposable income next year than I did this year because of the carbon tax rebate, how does it curb my spending on emission generating products? And that's just one person, multiply that by the millions of Canadians who will supposedly be getting more back than they paid out.

If the carbon tax is entirely legal to force on the provinces and it is for entirely altruistic reasons, then why all the lies about it from the assholes syphoning it out of our wallets? Because that's what Groper does. He and his minions, who call themselves Team:Trudeau, are clearly incapable of telling the truth about anything. And I gotta wonder, considering the Liberals have demonstrated they have no problem with attempting to obstruct justice, if the three judges who voted in favour were somehow "pressured" to do so.

There are 40 national and 20 sub national carbon taxes

If someone was really interested in how they are supposed to work why on earth wouldn't they just go and find out?

I's because they don;t care how they work. They only care that they are something they are supposed to be against and so they are.

Not necessarily. Nor does it mean a change of government cannot cancel it.
A change of government will cancel the provincial carbon taxes?

Also, I don't believe there is a federal party without a carbon tax plan.

Record job creation in April

The job-killing tax did just the opposite.

My question was weather he ruling that the federal tax is constitutional meant that the provincial taxes were also constitutional.

Not sure where the misunderstanding might be.
