This is not a recommendation for policy, but you could have a form of carbon tax within the country, one that we manage, where we know that we're not simply transferring wealth out of the country to some organization that had to shut down their dirty old polluter ten years ago and has a credit. You can also meet, or essentially pay, your carbon tax by investing in science and technology.
The real issue is the creation of intellectual capital that is focused on unique Canadian opportunities and challenges.
