A carbon tax is not 'weak virtue signalling', a sufficiently priced carbon tax changes the composition of supply and demand for all goods to account for carbon emitted.

I agree and am in favour of carbon taxes. However this particular carbon tax is weak virtue signaling exactly because it is not sufficiently priced.

The Canadian carbon tax can barely politically survive at the price its at, and moreover its slated to reach $170 / ton

And it’s poorly targeted.
