Let's say there was a $200 tax credit and 1% of drivers (rough est of 30 million so 300,000) took advantage of this, it would cost Canadian govt 60 million a year. I am guessing this would be a significant catalyst to encourage usage and also give car shares better economies of scale offering improved service. This would create a positive reinforcing circle. I think this is already happening but it could be significantly "sped up" without encouraging much malinvestment by the ride shares themselves.

@carsharing Has there ever been consideration in Canada for a personal tax deduction for car sharing expenses? It seems to me this could be a great way to help increase adoption and help lower/middle income families.

Bill Clinton to Nelson Mandela: “Tell me the truth. When you were leaving prison after twenty-seven years and walking down that road to freedom, didn't you hate them all over again?” Mandela: "Absolutely I did, because they'd imprisoned me for so long. I was abused. I didn't get to see my children grow up. I lost my marriage and the best years of my life. I was angry. And I was afraid, because I had not been free in so long. But as I got closer to the car that would take me away, I realized that when I went through that gate, if I still hated them, they would still have me. I wanted to be free. And so I let it go."

@MorningBrew So assuming you know how they calculate the fine, you can work backwards and figure out their claimed income

Thank you for this article. That explains the general mechanics of what is going on but doesn't really answer my question that if the ice shelf is reducing in one area but expanding more in another, why this a crisis that we should be concerned about. From a layman's perspective, this sounds like things are simply changing and given the incredible complexity of earth systems (including human impact), should be expected.

@brandondaly2018 @MatthewWielicki Can you explain why it's very serious? If the ice shelf is growing in some areas and less in others, why do we care? Just trying to understand, thank you.

Interesting, let's watch it. I think globally its going up. There is also a problem in that barrel of oil is used for many things, gasoline/petrol is just part of it. If you reduce demand for that part of it, the rest of the barrel is still needed for chemicals, plastics, diesel, jet fuel, etc.

@wayne1848 @breakingbaht @Cool_Scotty990 @Bowenchris Most of the renewables are in west Texas where there is an abundance of wind and sun unlike Canada. They also burn lots of coal. What's your point?
