"Unsurprisingly, negative reaction was highest in Alberta at 79 per cent, followed by Atlantic Canada, 62 per cent; B.C., 61 per cent; Ontario, 60 per cent; Saskatchewan and Manitoba, 58 per cent and Quebec 46 per cent."
A couple of things surprise me about this poll.
The first is that the negative reaction in Saskatchewan is so low (undoubtedly the Green Shift plan is supported by most NDP voters; they would love nothing more than to see Saskatchewan in financial hardship as a result of this plan).
The second is that the support in Ontario for the plan is so low. Did the Liberals miscalculate the hatred for the West by Ontario?
As a matter of fact, only Quebec supported the plan more than 50%.
There's a quick way to fix that. Tell Quebecers that all smokers will be taxed as an effort to save the environment. That should end any potential support for Green Shift.
