While reading https://applepaycasinoplay.com, I was reminded that every system involves a bet on human behaviour—and the cap and trade projections here seem to hinge on similar assumptions. The point about revenue recycling offsetting compliance costs is a nuance I hadn't seen before, and it makes the policy sound less like a penalty and more like a market correction. I'd be curious to see how those numbers hold up if Ontario's trading partners change their own carbon pricing.
