Melfort Mayor weighs in on latest carbon tax announcement
The City of Melfort’s Mayor is weighing in on the latest announcement that the federal carbon tax is coming to Saskatchewan.
A government release states that the tax will be applied to all bills received by SaskPower and SaskEnergy customers. The increase will result in an average of about $2 tacked onto power, and about $9 on natural gas for the rest of 2019.
Rick Lang said the city is not supportive of the increase.
