Former Liberal MP Dan McTeague joins Stephen LeDrew to break down what Canadians are actually paying under Ottawa’s climate policies - and why costs keep rising despite promises to the contrary.
McTeague explains why Canada still has two carbon taxes, including the lesser-known industrial carbon tax (OBPS) and the Clean Fuel Regulation, which adds cents per litre to fuel costs and thousands of dollars annually to household expenses. He also tackles the real-world impact on food prices, the Canadian dollar, and affordability.
The conversation turns to electric vehicle mandates, the risk of deindustrialization, China’s dominance in EV battery production, and what these policies could mean for Canadian jobs - especially in Ontario’s auto and agricultural sectors.
From farmers and truckers to families trying to make ends meet, this is a blunt, fact-driven discussion about energy, affordability, and economic reality in Canada.
