OTTAWA — Liberal leadership candidate Mark Carney added his name to the list of Liberals promising to scrap the Trudeau government’s consumer carbon tax, instead promising incentives on the purchase of “eco-responsible” options and making “big polluters” pay more.

On Friday, Carney said it was time to move on from the much-maligned consumer carbon tax, instead promising to fold a new consumer carbon credit market into the industrial carbon pricing system.
