Pierre appears to be just another politician who can't be bothered to even attend personally to vote. It is interesting as well that the "axe the tax" movement has no official plan behind it.... Really does not surprise me, quit easy to dismantle policy with-out providing solutions...
The idea was never to force an election, anyone paying attention realized that it was to force the ndp to vote with the liberals, to turn more voters away from both, in the next election.
As far as the carbon tax is concerned the plan is simple, just do away with it, since it served no purpose.

This is exactly what they did. It was to squeeze a few more votes out of the NDP and Bloc. They didn’t expect for one second think the motion would pass.
The CPC wants a majority and nothing less.

Well.. technically it did exactly what is was designed to do, put money in Trudeau's "pocket" to buy votes (ie. Open immigration, throw money at Ukraine/Russia/wef/etc.), and make Canadians Believe they were getting more money back than they were paying.

But I get what you are saying. It did absolutely nothing for "carbon reduction".
