The Progressive Conservative government could send inspectors to check for the stickers.
Ontario Progressive Conservative MPPs show off anti-carbon tax stickers. Their government will force gas stations to display the stickers or face fines of up to $10,000 a day.
The budget contains a new piece of legislation called the Federal Carbon Tax Transparency Act that would require gas stations to display the sticker on each pump. The sticker shows the federal carbon tax adding 4.4 cents per litre to the price of gas now, and rising to 11 cents a litre in 2022. Individuals could be fined up to $500 each day, or up to $1,000 a day for subsequent offences. Corporations could be fined up to $5,000 a day, or up to $10,000 a day for subsequent offences.Ontario's Progressive Conservative government will force businesses to display this information, which leaves out the fact that carbon tax revenues will be rebated back to consumers."This is a new low, even for Doug Ford," NDP energy critic Peter Tabuns said in a statement.
The provincial Tories are slamming the federal carbon tax at every turn, and while Ford has said he is staying out of the upcoming federal election, he directly linked the two Friday in a speech to the Ontario General Contractors Association.
