B.C. government says it will table legislation on Monday that eliminates the consumer carbon tax.

Premier David Eby said earlier this month that the province would kill the consumer tax.

The tax has been in place since 2008 and getting rid of it leaves a $1.5-billion hole in the provincial budget.
