Canada’s progressive experiment is disintegrating into a thousand pieces before our very eyes.

On Thursday morning, B.C. Premier David Eby announced that he would consider scrapping the provincial consumer carbon tax if Ottawa made it possible.

This comes less than a year after he declared that British Columbia would be the last stand of Canada’s carbon taxes, come hell or high water, and follows his federal counterpart, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, signalling that he will oppose the current version of the tax.
