The Green Party of Ontario is unveiling its own version of the sticker Thursday, with a similar graphic design, lettering and colour scheme, but a completely different message about climate change. The version Premier Doug Ford revealed last month declares, "The federal carbon tax will cost you." Gas station companies that fail to post the government's sticker on the pumps could face fines of up to $10,000 a day, under new legislation the Progressive Conservatives call the Federal Carbon Tax Transparency Act. Green Party of Ontario Leader Mike Schreiner poses in his office with a poster-sized version of the sticker he wants to offer gas stations to post alongside the Ford government's carbon tax stickers. The sticker shows the carbon tax adding 4.4 cents per litre to the price of gas now, rising to 11 cents per litre in 2022.
