The Wildrose is launching a last-ditch effort to reduce the impact of the NDP's carbon tax bill on Albertans. Wildrose house leader Nathan Cooper said the motions will include accountability measures for how carbon tax revenues are spent as well as how the levy is applied. The Official Opposition party plans to introduce motions next week in hopes of putting accountability measures into the implementation of the carbon tax. Jansen's motion proposed the government table a review in the first legislature session of 2019 showing the economic impact of the carbon tax and what effect it had on emissions. The Alberta legislature was supposed to wrap up the spring session Thursday, but debate over the bill is extending the session into next week.
