Carbon Tax struck down - unfair

Campbell’s carbon tax is also unfair, for instance it is unfair to those British Columbians who have no access to public transport. Here is a report out of France.

Nicolas Sarkozy’s government in France was scrambling to salvage its flagship carbon tax on Wednesday after the constitutional council struck down the measure just two days before it was due to come into force.

The council, which rules on the validity of laws passed by the French parliament, said the tax on emissions by households and businesses violated the equality principle because of its many exemptions.

These meant the tax burden would not be shared equally, threatening to render the measure ineffective, the council said. The move is aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions.

In all, 93 per cent of all industrial carbon emissions in France would have avoided paying the full tax, the constitutional court said. It would have fallen disproportionately on fuel for heating and cars, it said.

“The council ruled that the system of exemptions, due to their extensive nature, were contrary to the objective of fighting global warming and contravene the principle of equality before the tax system.”

In BC the voters will have the right to veto BC government legislation if a BC Refederation Party gains power in Victoria.
