The Die Is Cast
The carbon tax policy will go forward. I am sure of it.
Remember John Tory? The worst thing he ever did wasn't to propose a policy dealing with public funds for faith based schools. The worst thing he did was change his mind. Once he cancelled his policy, voters were sure of two things:
1. He is a willy nilly who can be pushed around, not a leader. This is important when your slogan is "leadership matters."
2. Everyone KNEW that he REALLY WANTED to fund faith based schools, because he'd said as much.
The same is true in this case. If Dion does not propose the carbon tax at this point, two things happen:
1. Everyone calls him a 'willy nilly' who can be pushed around. This especially sucks when you've already been attacked several thousand times for being "not a leader."
2. Everyone WILL KNOW that Dion REALLY WANTS to tax fossil fuels, because he's said as much. Any talk of a "TORY SECRET AGENDA" is now impossible. Even though the Tories support the death penalty, locking up Omar Khadr, calling the fetus a legal "person," lying about their total military budget, offering MP's "financial considerations" for their votes, floor crossing in exchange for cabinet seats, and allowing Rob Anders to speak in public.
So you Liberals (that's right, you), bear in mind while you're writing - Dion's going to do this thing. He has to now. So please make sure your words are kind and sweet, because you may have to eat them later.

We didn't need Dion to cancel his carbon tax policy to know he's a wimp. He's shown that repeatedly -on the environment, on Afghanistan, on the budget, on and on and on. What Dion does on the carbon tax won't change anyone's opinion of the man. Let's just have an election and then scout around for someone who can actually lead the LPC.
