OTTAWA — When it comes to its national carbon pricing regime, the Liberal government is getting lonelier and lonelier.
First it was the opposition New Democrats who raised questions about their support for a policy they had unambiguously championed in the past two federal election campaigns. Earlier this spring, and again this week, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh suggested his party is looking at other carbon pricing options as it designs a new climate plan for the next campaign. Whatever they come up with, Singh claimed, would not impose a burden on everyday Canadians.
