One could argue that the NDP has indeed done more to address environmental issues than all previous governments combined. That's one of the reasons I voted for them.

I still profoundly disagree with the carbon tax though. It will do absolutely nothing to help the environment or curb emissions. It's a tax grab- plain and simple! All it is doing is making everything more expensive, especially for low-income workers and the poor, and aren't these the folks the NDP have always pledged to fight for? The NDP tries to clear its conscience by sending us $100.00 rebate cheques every 6 months. I can blow through a hundred dollars in less than ten minutes in this province! And it certainly doesn't help pay the rent, the bills or the groceries. What a joke!
