Carbon Tax end game

How does a carbon tax not affect gas prices? By not DIRECTLY adding to the price, says Dion. But how do you not add to the price of a litre of gas when you tax the exploration, drilling or digging, & refining of fuel? No matter how much you squawk Dion’s Carbon tax WILL increase the price of gasoline. And food. And electricity. And heating oil. And shipping. And manufacturing. And. And. And.

Of course, we can offset those price increases buying nothing and by not traveling. Say bye bye to the economy. But we'll have such a nice planet!
