Especially with how the Liberals made concessions so quickly on the carbon tax because they're afraid.

The residential heating oil concessions represent a miniscule amount of the total carbon taxes while maximizing carbon emission reduction intensity.

It's a good trade-off, although their messaging on why the change happened was sloppy. Keeping the tax as is and avoiding this debacle, and then further enhancing the incentives to change would have been my preferred method.
