Several Canadian premiers are voicing their opposition to carbon price increases at parliamentary hearings. Premier Scott Moe and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith testified against the hikes, calling them 'inhumane' and 'immoral.' The premiers are demanding an end to the upcoming carbon tax price hike, with some criticizing the Liberal government's environmental policies and emissions cap as harmful and likely to face legal challenges.
