71st Annual Tax Conference, Canadian Tax Foundation

Abstract

Carbon Taxation in Canada. This session will scan the status of carbon pricing in Canada, federally and provincially, and provide an update on the legal and political developments. This session, however, will primarily address whether Canada’s climate plan and carbon pricing policies are an effective tool to change people’s behaviours and its impact on the economy. Included will be an analysis on tracking and measuring changes in consumer behaviour and whether there have been positive or negative effects on the economy.
