Summary
Big news. Serious business. No press conference. Just a leak. This week on Balance of Power, Annalise Klingbeil, Leah Ward and Shannon Phillips dig into how this actually works. Government wants something out there. Not a scrum. Not a pile of questions. Their version. First. So it shows up in a column. A scoop. Headline already pointed where they want it. Why do it this way? What do they get out of it? And why does it still work? Then it gets into the weeds. Carbon pricing. Credits. Markets. How it’s supposed to work. How it actually works. Shannon Phillips walks through it. Why some companies are sitting on credits. Why the price isn’t what people think it is. And why this is heading for a fight with Ottawa. Policy is one thing. The story is another.
