It’s only divisive for stupid people - carbon tax is the simplest solution to curbing carbon output. Also, it’s not expensive when the money goes right back to the tax payers
For someone with your username, that sounds incredibly eugenicist (choosing who can vote), and more typical of someone who believes in liberalism to say (the elitism in blaming people who fall for the propaganda instead of the propagandists themselves). Surely this kind of language plays a part in disenfranchising people who are simply misinformed. Kind of counterproductive.
They should have physically mailed the cheques to people. And have all financial institutions have a separate account just for the rebate so people could see the amount in their banking app or statements but could only access it if they cached the cheques.

These stupid people vote though. So…
Yeah thats a big problem tbh Nothing worthwhile is ever gonna change while stupid people can still vote…
Well it could be better if we could get more smart people to vote. But the smart ppl are too busy working.

Should have called it the “polluter tax and rebate”
Or even “carbon tax and cash back” system

DoFo mailed out cheques before the last election.
The alternate universe where it was set up and marketed differently would be interesting to see.
