Carney knew the keeping the Carbon Tax was a complete non starter with the electorate, obviously axing it by Order in Council within hours of being sworn in.

This single act has removed the largest arrow from Poilievre's quiver of criticisms in the upcoming election.

As I understand it the consumer's gas price at pump should drop by 17 cents per liter +/- attributable to the carbon tax right away?
