Saskatchewan to decide in February whether to remit heating gas carbon taxes to Ottawa, minister says

By WNews 1 Min Read

Saskatchewan will decide in February whether it will remit the carbon tax collected on natural gas to the federal government. 

“We haven’t made a decision at this point,” Dustin Duncan, the minister responsible for SaskEnergy, said in an interview with CBC’s Power and Politics on Tuesday. “That won’t happen until later in February.”

Last October the provincial government said it would stop collecting the carbon tax on natural gas on Jan. 1 in response to Ottawa’s decision to pause the tax on home heating oil. The federal move largely helps those in Atlantic provinces, where oil is a main source for home heating.
