Singh defends NDP carbon price position — without directly supporting a consumer levy
OTTAWA — The federal leader of the New Democrats spent Monday insisting his party’s position on carbon pricing remains unchanged.
But Jagmeet Singh refused to say explicitly whether he supports the consumer levy, and Canadians having to pay it on everyday items like gasoline.
“Our position is not changed — at all,” he told reporters.
“We absolutely support a price on pollution. We’ve always supported it.”
