  You need to make less then 60 grand to get rebates. I make more so no rebates

    Then you are in a province where the carbon price is not run by the fed. The fed says every province has to have a carbon price, but has minimal opinion on where the revenue goes. If a province does not implement their own system, then they get the federal carbon tax-and-rebate system.

    The federal tax-and-rebate system has no income rules. You can be broke or a billionaire you still get your cut. The amount is based on province (the ctax money does not leave the province), family size, and urban vs rural (rural folks get a bigger chunk of the pie).

    You must be thinking of a different grant, or you’re in a province where the carbon price is not federally run. The federal Climate Action Incentive payment is disbursed to everyone.

    The carbon tax rebate is given regardless of income. Stop spreading bullshit

      How the fuck do you figure that. It specifically gives a income amount and threshold. I make over a certain amount so no return. They adjust it to family income. How is that spreading bullshit?

        Because the federal carbon tax rebate has no income threshold, I would know since I get it and my income is double your theoretical threshold.
