Canada Votes - Election 2008
REGINA — Stephane Dion's carbon tax plan is a "grand academic experiment" that will hit all Canadians in the wallet, Prime Minister Stephen Harper warned.

At a campaign rally in the barn of a rural Regina farm, Harper said Canadians have a clear choice between his government's "proven record" and an "untested, improvised" proposal from the Liberals.

"The carbon tax will add to the average Canadian's home heating bill, the average farmer will pay more to run his combine, the typical trucker will pay even higher prices for diesel each time he fills up his truck," he said. "The same goes for fishermen, factories, small businesses and, of course, consumers."
