I don't know anyone that turned down their heat, and
very few that changed their driving habits. The low
income people that I know live in apartments, so they
don't pay for heat, their landlords just increase the rent,
because they pay the carbon tax. And the low income people that I know, either no longer drive, or they drove very little anyways, so it really didn't change how they live. However, everyone pays more for clothing, groceries, and everything else, because of the carbon tax, and the low income people can least afford the extra cost.
