Conservatives won't be taking advice from "so-called experts" when it comes to carbon pricing, the party said in a statement on Wednesday after more than 200 economists signed an open letter challenging leader Pierre Poilievre's stance.

The panel hearing feedback on whether Alberta should quit the Canada Pension Plan heard multiple callers tell them on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023, it’s time to embrace a “no-brainer” provincial program.

The board of the Canada Pension Plan says Alberta’s consultation with its citizens on quitting the CPP is not a straightforward fact-finding exercise but rather a biased manipulation of public opinion.

Alberta thinks it's entitled to more than half of Canada's shared pension fund, and it's apparently willing to make other Canadians pay more to get its hands on the money. Did Danielle Smith just hand Justin Trudeau a lifeline in the process?

The Alberta government is set to release its long-promised report on whether the province should quit the Canada Pension Plan and pursue its own provincial program.

Not all the plotters have been identified, but they’re known to include a handful of senior strategists, one former cabinet minister, and Jean Charest, the only leadership candidate with any hope of beating Pierre Poilievre, writes Arno Kopecky.

Ken Boessenkool, executive director of the recently launched Conservatives for Clean Growth, said Friday it doesn't view a consumer carbon price as the make-or-break feature of a good plan to tackle climate change.

After briefly trying to appeal to climate-concerned voters, the Conservative Party of Canada is ditching its carbon pricing plan, a move Canada’s environment minister says “proves they have no credibility in the fight against climate change.”
