Previously known as the Climate Action Incentive Payment, the Liberals are now calling it the "Canada Carbon Rebate."

The change does not come with any adjustments to how the federal fuel charge system and corresponding refund actually works.

"The name was updated to the Canada Carbon Rebate to clarify its function, and make its meaning and relationship to the carbon pricing system more intuitive for Canadians," reads a government press release.

Absolutely. It should always have been labeled better. It's insane how much mileage the Cons have got from that con. It's not a tax; it's revenue neutral.

Trudeau is so hated that I think we're unfortunately going to have an anti-trans bigot as our next PM.

I feel like we're a"light" version of what the US is facing; the hateful, racist populist will beat out the milquetoast, "fine" candidate due to "an enthusiasm gap". Punching down on 2SLGBTQ+ and "foreigners" shouldn't be a winning play in Canada. It's sickening.
