It would set a fee on carbon where it comes out of the ground or at the port of entry, increase that fee over time, and distribute 100% of that money from the fee equally among all Canadians.</p>",

Ce r\u00e9gime, pr\u00e9conis\u00e9 par le Parti vert du Canada et appuy\u00e9 par le Citizens' Climate Lobby, permettrait de fixer le prix du carbone au lieu d'extraction ou au point d'entr\u00e9e et de distribuer la totalit\u00e9 des recettes ainsi obtenues \u00e9galement entre tous les Canadiens.</p>"
