Prime Minister Trudeau criticizes Poilievre's plan to scrap carbon pricing, arguing it would end rebates for most families.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau criticizes Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre's pledge to scrap carbon pricing, stating that it would mean the end of carbon rebates for most families. Trudeau claims that 80% of families get more back through the Canada carbon rebate program than the additional cost they pay for gas and home heating due to the price on carbon. Poilievre has proposed a "summer break" on federal gas taxes, arguing that Canadian families need a break as they struggle with high inflation.
