Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has made a serious accusation against Prime Minister Mark Carney, claiming that Carney has been concealing the consumer carbon tax to influence the election. Poilievre argues that the executive order Carney signed to eliminate the tax is a fake, insisting that it remains in effect and hasn't been removed anywhere. He also warned that it could be reintroduced after the election.

During a visit to a steel company in L'Orignal village, Ontario, Poilievre criticized Carney’s plan to increase the carbon tax on Canadian companies, especially in the context of Trump’s tariffs. He called this move dangerous, stating it would hurt workers and lead to price increases, while pushing jobs and money out of Canada, exactly what Trump wants.
