British Columbia is preparing to review its carbon tax in the 2012 budget. To gather perspectives on the impacts of the tax to date, and to document the range of perspectives regarding the future design of the carbon tax, The Pembina Institute and the Energy and Materials Research Group out of Simon Fraser University conducted a series of interviews with representatives from a wide variety of sectors in the province.
This report presents the results of these interviews, along with recommendations on how to best navigate carbon tax design issues and communication challenges that were identified.
