Facing Homelessness In A Carbon-Taxed World
EDMONTON, CANADA - MARCH 29: Homeless peoples on the sidewalk near the entrance to Hope Mission in downtown Edmonton, on March 29, 2024, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. April 1 will bring a federal carbon tax hike, potentially raising fuel prices and affecting Canadians and businesses. With increased spending on gasoline, diesel, and propane, there's a risk of further cost hikes, worsening inflationary pressures. This may hit those already struggling with rising living expenses the hardest. (Photo by Artur Widak/NurPhoto)
