Privately and publicly, Doug Ford warns Justin Trudeau’s Liberals they’ll be ‘annihilated’ if they raise the carbon price

Premier Doug Ford is appealing — not just publicly but also privately — to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to not increase the carbon levy April 1, warning the Liberals risk being “annihilated.”

“I do not understand for the life of me what the federal government is thinking,” the Progressive Conservative premier told reporters Wednesday in Pickering.

“If they don’t start … putting money back into people’s pockets instead of filling their pockets, guess what, they’re going to get annihilated,” he said of an election expected next year.
