Case KS1170 is accompanied by this sequel. In 2008, The province of British Columbia became part of the elite few authorities on the planet to successfully implement a thorough carbon tax. Every dollar would be returned to BC residents and companies in the sort of personal income and corporate tax reductions.
The head of BC’s liberal party gave tax cuts previously due to his conservative leanings. However, now he had reason to believe a revenue neutral carbon tax could be a winner for the economy and the environment. However, with elections approaching amidst public suspicion of the tax, the fate of the tax, combined with a noisy campaign against the tax New Democratic Party, and that of Campbell's political career was far from certain. This case provides an insider's account of the carbon tax was designed, with the powerful role Premier Gordon Campbell played in its creation. In addition, it explores other and political challenges the authorities faced when designing and implementing the tax.
