"The consumer carbon tax is dead in Canada. It will now become a corporate carbon tax."

"The carbon tax still exists, and Mark Carney is apparently busy signing fakes [order eliminating consumer carbon tax]."

"On April 1, Canada will be eliminating the carbon tax for consumers."

"He [Pierre Poilievre] would get rid of the consumer fuel levy."

As Prime Minister, Pierre Poilievre "will repeal the entire carbon tax law."

"We will take the carbon tax off your gas, heat and food."

"So my government will immediately eliminate the divisive consumer carbon tax on families and farmers and small and medium-sized businesses."

"The Government of the Northwest Territories will remove the Northwest Territories carbon tax for all consumers except large emitters on April 1, 2025."

"I am announcing today common sense Conservatives will reverse last June’s Liberal tax hike on capital gains—a tax economists agree will kill 400,000 jobs."

"Canada will increase its capital gains taxes by effectively about 30% higher tax."

"We are very committed to the capital gains measures that we put forward in the budget."

The legislation passed with support from both Liberal and Conservative MPs in the House of Commons, while the NDP and Bloc Québécois opposed the major projects portion, citing concerns about Indigenous rights, provincial autonomy, and environmental protections.

Fast-tracking projects makes economic sense when Canada faces unprecedented challenges from U.S. tariffs and global competition for critical minerals. The legislation includes proper safeguards for Indigenous consultation and environmental standards while creating certainty for investors.

Implementation of Bill C-5: One Canadian Economy

The rushed legislative process demonstrates contempt for parliamentary democracy and proper scrutiny of major policy changes. Senators were given only days to analyze sweeping legislation that grants cabinet unprecedented discretionary powers to circumvent federal laws.

Andr Pratte: The Senate must reject Mark Carney's C-5 power grab

This legislation represents essential nation-building that will finally unleash Canada's economic potential after decades of regulatory gridlock. The country desperately needs to respond to U.S. trade aggression and compete globally for investment, especially when it takes 20 years to build a mine in Canada while other nations move faster.

Bill C-5 is an important step to strengthening Canadas economic capacity

Bill C-5 is a dangerous power grab that tramples Indigenous rights and environmental protections in the name of economic expediency. The government gave Indigenous communities just seven days to review legislation that could override the Indian Act and bypass crucial consultation processes.
