▶ The Liberal government is proposing to implement a carbon price of $10 per tonne in 2018, reaching $50 per tonne by 2022. EDMONTON—Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says the province will not support Ottawa’s climate change plan unless the federal government makes progress on new oil pipelines to Canada’s coasts. Notley immediately issued a statement saying, in principle, her government supports a common carbon price. Nova Scotia isn’t welcoming the prime minister’s sudden announcement that Ottawa will set and enforce, if necessary, a minimum price for carbon production. In a statement, Miller says Nova Scotia has already met Canada’s target of a 30 per cent reduction in emissions from 2005 by 2030.
