Any suggestions on how we can actually make corporations pay for the carbon they emit if a carbon tax isn’t it?
Doing nothing is what we have been doing and it isn’t working.

Yeah, buy taxing them properly, and not just putting the tax on the individual

How would you implement that? Like, how do you propose to impose a tax on the company that they can’t just pass along to the customer?

I don’t know, maybe a LAW that forces companies to eat the cost?
But hey even with our carbon tax, our Canadian companies are still making yearly record, so that’d good right?

How would that law work? Unless you’re setting the price as a matter of law, how could you ever prove that a price rise was because of the tax and not “other economic factors”?
