Dion to promise that carbon tax won't increase price at pumps
OTTAWA — Stéphane Dion will make a “solid promise” Thursday that his new carbon-tax plan will not include an increase at the pumps, a source says.
The long-awaited “green shift plan” would be revenue neutral and deliver “substantive” tax cuts to Canadian families, the source said.
On Tuesday, Liberal caucus members were told that their weekly Wednesday caucus meeting had been rescheduled to Thursday. The source said the change was made to prevent leaks to the media before Mr. Dion announces his plan.
It is believed he will explain his proposal in detail to his caucus Thursday morning and then to the public in the afternoon.
