“According to the Bank of Canada, the carbon price is only responsible for about 0.1 percentage points of annual inflation,” he wrote. ... "We continue to remain open to proposals for credible systems that price pollution that reflect the unique realities of your regions and meet the national benchmark.”

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre relentlessly campaigns to, as he puts it, “spike the hike.” Poilievre has been drumming up support for months, hosting coast-to-coast rallies, fundraising and selling party T-shirts with his pledge to “axe the tax” should Conservatives form the next government.

Ah, I see the problem. Trudeau needs to stop explaining things and just come up with something that rhymes and fits on a T-shirt. Maybe "Pass on Gas"?
