Pierre calls a non-confidence vote, then does not attend in person.
If Pierre wants to win, he needs to change the mind of the voter. To change the mind of the voter, we need a plan, not a slogan. These same voters that are needed to change our political landscape won't appreciate a non-confidence vote where he didn't bother to attend. These voters do care about the environment, so not having a plan again does not secure their confidence in a different party.
Pierre has a chance as the majority of voters are swimming in debt, this alone won't win a majority government which is what is needed to force change.

Carbon tax on gasoline is around 14ish cents and going to over 17 cents.
23% increase sounds about right to me. Don't have a calculator handy
Same increase every year for another 6 years yet. Ouch
