At this point Scheer would have to start raping babies for me not to vote CPC.
analysis of the ScheerClimatePlan -
by EnviroEconomics and Canadians for Clean Prosperity
- CPC Leader Andrew Scheer's proposed climate plan would cost households more money and result in more emissions than the Liberal government's current plan
- the Conservative plan would miss the Paris Agreement by a larger margin than the current Liberal government plan
- by 2022, the Conservative plan would carry a price tag that amounts to $3.8 billion more than the current set of Liberal government policies and proposals – including the savings that would come from the CPC promising to scrap the carbon tax and the proposed Clean Fuel Standard.
- the CPC Scheer climate plan would result in an average cost-per-household of $295 in 2022. The report acknowledges that provinces without the federal carbon tax in place would be "less adversely impacted," facing increased costs of just $187 per household.
- in regards the Paris targets, the current Liberal government plan is on track to miss them by 79 megatonnes. Scheer's plan would widen that gap to 109 megatonnes
Report Summary:
This report analyzes the recently released Conservative Party of Canada Climate Plan (the Plan) to understand its emissions reduction potential and cost. We find that the Plan would increase emissions by 9.1 Mt in 2022, relative to the current and announced measures being planned by the federal and provincial governments, as described in the most recent “additional measures” scenario from Environment and Climate Change Canada. The Plan would have a net cost of $3.8 billion by 2022 accounting for savings from removing existing measures including the carbon tax (regulatory charge) and the Clean Fuel Standard. This translates into a cost of $295 per household in all provinces and territories except B.C., Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador that are subject to the federal carbon pricing benchmark or implemented economy-wide carbon pricing to avoid the federal regulatory charge. Residents of provinces that do not have the economy-wide carbon price (B.C., Quebec, and Newfoundland and Labrador) would have a lower cost of $187. The report also finds that the Plan would result in Canada missing the Paris target of 513 Mt in 2030 by 109 Mt, an increase of 30 Mt or 38% from the current 2030 projection from Environment and Climate Change Canada. It is not reasonable to assume the Plan, as currently outlined, is scalable to close the 2030 gap to Canada’s Paris target.
