Canada is a large cool/cold country and like many Canadians we need to heat our home for at least 7 months per year.   Like many Canadians we live in a rural area with no public transportation and we must use our automobile to get to work and shop.   I suspect for Canadians with access to public transportation that the cost of the carbon tax will be passed on and added to the fares.  Electricity costs in Ontario have become punitive and now the cost of carbon taxes will be added not only to heating and transportation costs but to any item that requires manufacturing and/or transportation including food, clothing etc.    If bankrupting Canadians will reduce carbon emissions then governments are well on their way to achieving their goals.
