COP25 – Madrid. Global Carbon Tax Law Has Serious Consequences for Canada and Democracy

COP25 – Madrid.  After rioting and civil unrest in Chile, the intended location of COP-25, Madrid, Spain agreed to take on the challenge of hosting some 20,000 climate change bureaucrats for the 25th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). #GretaThunberg is taking a yacht there, crossing the Atlantic in stormy wintertime.  The climate confab takes place December 2-13, 2019.  The ‘climateers’ plan to implement the Paris Agreement “rule book” and there’s a push for a global carbon tax law.  We take a look at what Canadians are already paying in carbon tax equivalents on federal and provincial fuel taxes – and what the rest of the world pays in carbon taxes.  What would a carbon tax law mean for Canada and other democracies. Please read our rebuttal to the UN Climate Panel’s recent IPCC SR15 report.
