And yet so many make such a big deal out of carbon pricing.

And yet the PC’s are leading the way…

Probably an expression of the desire to see these areas improved. Probably not the same as saying they want higher taxes

55% but so many people complain about the carbon tax? lol

Did a local budget exercise in YYC in prep for our local budget. Not a single dot for climate/resiliency work. Glad the rest of the country has retained some sanity.

Then why would PP be ahead in the polls? That reformer won't support any of these.

PP is projected to receive 40% of the vote which is the most of any party but still 60% of the people don’t want him. The polling data seems consistent with this result assuming that people who aren’t planning to vote for PP are also inclined to be in favour of higher taxes.

Thank you for explaining that. I appreciate it.
