Dear Editor,

Canadians be warned: B.C.鈥檚 carbon tax is not working. We pay some of the highest carbon taxes in Canada and all we have to show for it are emptier wallets and higher emissions.

The B.C.鈥檚 government numbers show the province鈥檚 emissions have shot up 10 per cent in the past three years.

The government said the carbon tax would lower emissions but it hasn鈥檛. We have higher emissions.

The only thing the carbon tax is doing is costing us all more to drive to work, drop our kids off at school and heat our homes.

This is nothing but a cash grab yanked out of the wallets of hard working people, and Horgan knows rebates to us are meaningless.

Dean Clark, Walnut Grove
