Dear Editor:
It's nothing short of despicable that all three Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership candidates have shown zero courage when it comes to supporting the one tax that will give our kids a fighting chance against the growing threat of climate change.
For all his shortcomings and alleged sexual harassment of teenage girls, at least Mr. Brown understood that a sensibly applied carbon tax can do two things: it's by far the most efficient way to reduce climate warming greenhouse gases. It's also a surefire way to put more money back into the pockets of the majority of Ontarians than they will pay out in higher costs for gasoline, home heating, and everything else affected  by carbon pricing. I hope this politically convenient but immoral choice comes back to haunt each and every one of these so-called leaders. Sincerely, Liz Armstrong
