Anyone who taxes themselves for using energy warrants a from me while my gas tank is full and my house is warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

The GAF is not a tax. It is a usury fee. If you look at my example above, one has to ask how the hell a single fee for hydro can be almost three times as much as the actual cost of the hydro.

Because your government is strong-arm robbing you.

And that's why they don't want you people to have guns; because they plan on provoking you into wanting to use them.

Medicine Hat church 'happy to pay' carbon tax bill after UCP candidate wrongly claimed cost would be $50,000

A Medicine Hat church that was thrust into the political spotlight when a UCP candidate wrongly claimed it faced a $50,000 carbon tax bill will happily pay its tab of about one-tenth that size, says the lead pastor.

"For us the carbon tax is not a political issue," said Hillcrest Evangelical Missionary Church pastor Steve Pahl in a statement. "We are more than happy to pay our bills, whatever they are and need to be.

"Many people in our congregation are concerned about environmental issues."

UCP candidate for Brooks-Medicine Hat Michaela Glasgo caused waves on social media Sunday when she tweeted that the church was facing a massive $50,000 carbon tax bill for 2019.

She later retracted the statement and clarified the cost would actually be around $5,400.

But the astounding $50,000 figure was retweeted by UCP Leader Jason Kenney, who added the note "we hear stories like this all the time, sadly."

And that's why Kenney should not win.

Really now. Here's a TRUE story. In June of 2015, the City of Oshawa used about $26,000 worth of hydro. As a result, they received a bill for $151,000, over $60,000 of which was the charge for the global adjustment fee, which is just a fancy name for a carbon tax.

And THAT is why the Federal Liberals should be turfed out of office as brutally as the Ontario Libs were.

What's hilarious and sad at the same though is Nunavut has proved Groper's carbon tax is nothing more than a cash grab scam. Nunavut came up with a perfectly viable plan to reduce emissions by the target amount and date without screwing their people over with a useless tax. Groper flatly rejected it stating that it MUST have a carbon tax component. Well, if the goal is simply to reduce emissions, why the demand for a tax that's not needed to accomplish that goal?
The carbon tax will be challenged in court and it will lose. Nunavut is the lynch pin in that case.

And what does that have to do with the UCP in Alberta lying about the tax bill for a church?

It has everything to do with it. The carbon tax is a scam, pure and simple. Whether the church's carbon tax bill is $50,000 or $5,400, it's still a scam to redistribute wealth. The Liberals have been lying through their teeth about carbon tax's intent but that does't seem to bother you.

How about redistributing some wealth this way.... Llama needs a new VR headset and HOTAS joystick....

Taxes are one of the few tools governments have to change people's habit of using things bad for them. Worked for cigarettes, alcohol and acid rain. Would you prefer an outright ban on burning fossil fuels?
