Ontario PC Leader, Supports Putting A Price On Carbon

[maryjane48]

Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader Patrick Brown says he's in favour of putting a price on carbon to help deal with climate change, but he's still no fan of the Liberals' cap-and-trade plan.

In his keynote address to more than 1,600 PC convention delegates Saturday, Brown said the official opposition party must change if it wants to form government in 2018, and told delegates he became a Progressive Conservative because of the environment.

Not overly. It was a very politician type statement.

"I support doing something.....just not any of the somethings that people are currently suggesting or doing"

It's how they say they support something without actually doing anything.

Until someone comes up with a viable system this will continue, or we'll just get more taxes.
