"I'm confident we will have significant reductions. I'm not telling you specific numbers because you would not trust me," he said.

At least he has that part right. There's a leader with confidence he doesn't know squat about a plan he expects Canadians to embrace. I can't wait for the "big debate"

"I'm confident we will have significant reductions. I'm not telling you specific numbers because you would not trust me," he said.

Well on that he's dead right but I think he should have phrased it more along the lines of "because I have no f'in clue if it will reduce emissions".

Must be nice to propose a plan that has more holes than swiss cheese and no goals or targets and then to have the media back you 100% with out asking any critical questions.

Dion, who flatly rejected the carbon tax idea in the past, said his thinking has evolved with mounting evidence from economists and environmentalists. Asked why Canadians should believe he will now keep his word to ensure the carbon tax is revenue-neutral, Dion said he will always act in the best interests of Canada.

"Many people change their mind. It's incredible the number of people who change their mind," he said.

The fact that he spoke out against this plan 2 years ago is not mentioned in the media very much.

More Garth! This plan definately needs more garth Turner!
