I'm proud to share that my journal article "Decision-making in Nunavut's Impact Review Process" is now published in the Lakehead Law Journal llj.lakeheadu.ca/article/vie…

“Ottawa sends the rebates to offset what people pay in carbon pricing when they buy fuel...
People who do things to lower their fuel use are even better off, because they still get the same rebate but pay less in carbon pricing.”
