The party’s plan also pitches what it describes as a “carbon fee and dividend” system.
It’s similar but different to the Liberal system, during which revenues are deposited into government coffers after which paid back to the provinces from which they were collected through each income tax rebates and federal investments in green programs.
However the Green plan desires to see all emitters, large and small, across the country pay the identical price after which use that revenue to present a dividend cheque back to all Canadians equally on a per capita basis, with not one of the revenue staying in government coffers.
The party bills this as a approach to make the advantages more equitable for all Canadians and says it will especially help low-income Canadians.
