BATTLE LINES DRAWN OVER LIBERAL CARBON PRICING PLAN

Key provincial premiers dug in their heels over the Liberal government’s carbon-pricing plan on Tuesday as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau began seeking support among other provinces for his approach to fighting climate change.
Nova Scotia Premier Stephen McNeil said on Tuesday that the federal plan would increase pump prices for rural residents who have to drive everywhere, while Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall took his fight to social media, accusing Mr. Trudeau of reneging on a campaign promise by announcing he will impose a carbon-price plan on provinces that do not implement their own.
