An Environment Canada report says while Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s carbon tax raised $2.6 billion in 2019, only $2.2 billion was rebated to households, small and medium-sized businesses, municipalities, universities, school boards and hospitals.
Canadian households subject to the tax received $1.97 billion in rebates, in 2019, the first year of the carbon tax in provinces where it applied at the time — Ontario, New Brunswick, Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
