B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell is cutting quite the environmental figure these days. His government's new budget, delivered in the legislature yesterday by a green-bedecked Finance Minister Carole Taylor, set a new Canadian standard for what governments can do in the fight against global warming. Featured was a revenue-neutral carbon tax, surely a key instrument in the struggle. Where Campbell, Taylor, et al., have gone, will others now follow? Fingers are crossed.
