warbirds,

A carbon tax scheme like that as originally enacted in BC before it was gutted by Christy Clark's Government for partisan political gain is much superior to cap & trade schemes like that in Ontario.

That said, reorienting global & domestic economies to reverse carbon emissions will be a complex business filled with false starts & failing first efforts.  The danger posed by carbon emissions will not go away, however, & we all will have to work through these mistakes to workable solutions.
