Brad Wall Calls for 'Middle Ground' on Carbon Pricing Amid Inflation Worries

Former Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall argues for a "middle ground" approach on carbon pricing that balances affordability for families with technology investments.

Wall points to the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act as an alternative model that invests in green measures without an economy-wide carbon price.

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has pledged to "axe the tax" if elected, but hasn't released a climate plan.

Even some progressive premiers like Newfoundland's Andrew Fury are questioning the coming carbon price increase.

Wall says there's been a recent "inflection point" in attitudes on the carbon price due to inflation concerns and political messaging.
