Carbon price (Canada)

(

)

... that ... Canada just enacted a cap and trade program to tax carbon emissions? Source: http://andrewleach.ca/uncategorized/the-federal-output-based-carbon-pricing-system-works-because-its-not-an-exemption/ - "Much of the coverage of this system has framed the OBPS as an exemption from emissions pricing for large emitters, but that hides the importance of the two, linked programs – the carbon price and the output-based allocation of credits. "

Overall: One paragraph in the "Ontario" section has no sources. I have checked over the copyvio tool results and they all look to be for quotes or terms that cannot be written in other ways and looks okay to me. MPJ-DK (talk) 04:45, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

@MPJ-DK: Which paragraph? From what I can tell they all have at least 1 source... --DannyS712 (talk) 04:51, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Second one unless my eyes are messing with me? MPJ-DK (talk) 04:57, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Starting with In September 2017, Ontario joined MPJ-DK (talk) 04:59, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
@MPJ-DK: That paragraph, with the existing reference bolded: In September 2017, Ontario joined the Western Climate Initiative (WCI) , which was established in February 2007 by the governors of Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. *24 April 2007: British Columbia joined with the five western states, turning the WCI into an international partnership.[35] with the goal of developing a multi-sector, market-based program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.and link its cap-and-trade system with Quebec’s and California’s in January 2018. This harmonized carbon market will be the second largest in the world, trailing only the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and will feature joint permit auctions. Because it allows for permit trading between jurisdictions, linked cap-and-trade systems achieve lower-cost mitigation actions across jurisdictions than an unlinked system. --DannyS712 (talk) 05:01, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

Sorry I was unclear, I meant at the end of the paragraph not in general. MPJ-DK (talk) 05:05, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
@MPJ-DK: That same ref covers the rest of the paragraph, but I added another use of it at the end too --DannyS712 (talk) 05:13, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

I am happy to give this the ol' Checksy then, good work. MPJ-DK (talk) 05:34, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
