global price ~~instability~~ gouging

Fixed that for you

turning the thermostat down one or two degrees saves a lot of money and is healthier and more natural.

You know what saves even MORE money, is even HEALTHIER and even MORE natural? Instituting price ceilings to stop corporations from using global instability as an excuse for blatant price gouging rather than make it the responsibility of the powerless to compensate for the abuses of the powerful.

As the price goes up, revenue will go down

You couldn't be more wrong

Your link is not about Canada's carbon pricing revenue.

And the rest of your comment is just as inspiring.

My link is about the worldwide trend of corporate price gouging being the main cause of both inflation and record profits. That includes Canadian corporations.

I'm so hurt that my refutation of your nonsense failed to lift you up to the utmost of enlightened rapture. CRUSHED, I say! 🙄
