Just to point out:

  • Given that the Carbon tax is consumption based and the rich tend to consume significantly more it is effectively taxing the rich.

  • Up until recently before the Greener Home program was cancelled a very substantial portion of Heat pump installations was subsidized.

  • Modern heat pumps can still work at 75% capacity at -30c without auxiliary heat.
