Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has repeatedly insisted he will run in the 2025 election and has no plans to step down.Carney did appear at a Senate committee Wednesday night and said the Liberals\u2019 carbon tax has served a purpose and anyone who wants to replace it needs to provide a credible alternative.Conservative MP Jasraj Singh Hallan spared with Freeland over the carbon tax and demanded to know if she would keep it in place.\u201cBefore you launch your campaign, we wanted to know will you continue down the path of Justin Trudeau and quadruple the carbon tax?\u201d he asked Freeland.Freeland defended the tax, pointing to rebates, and said the entire cabinet fully supports Trudeau. She also dismissed Hallan\u2019s line of questioning.\u201cI\u2019m not sure the best use of this committee\u2019s precious time is to indulge in political speculation,\u201d she said.Freeland said countries around the world are demanding climate change policies from their trading partners and Canada can\u2019t afford to not have a climate policy.<\/section>\n<section class=\"newsletter-widget__new-story-page pm-politics-newsletters background--primary-light-gradient\" aria-labelledby=\"FirstReading9297818629341091265456165219205120\" data-account-id=\"b9d3df2fccd108b5eff3c44f573b2cd6\" data-aqa=\"widget-newsletter\" data-newsletter=\"single\" data-newsletter-component data-target-list=\"PM_Politics_Newsletters\" data-widget=\"newsletter\">First ReadingYour guide to the world of Canadian politics.
