Kudos to Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew. They put their money where their mouths are (or, more aptly, provincial taxpayers’ money).
Lost amongst the rhetoric and hyperbole surrounding the April 1 carbon tax increase across the country is the news Ford and Kinew, despite being among the seven premiers urging Ottawa to hold off on the carbon tax increase, have overseen a decrease of provincial fuel taxes in those provinces.
