Residents and businesses in Ontario will see their natural gas bill drop by Oct. 1 with the repeal of the provincial carbon tax, Premier Doug Ford announced on Wednesday.
The government said removing the carbon tax means a reduction of approximately 3.3 cents per cubic metre on the price of natural gas, which will save consumers about $80 a year and businesses up to $285 a year.
“Consumers will pay less because we are removing the cost of the carbon tax from the natural gas rates,” Ford said during a visit at a restaurant in Milton. “Reducing energy costs is a key part to our promise to the people of Ontario.”
For a big guy he’s pretty quick on his feet.
Just keep adding to the debt, dipshit. PM Trudeau will add it back on after you honkys lose the court case.
Awesome. Eighty bucks will get you a decent bottle of scotch at the LCBO.
Now if we had a Ford sitting in Ottawa I would start to feel much better. Congratulations to Doug Ford and his new government for so promptly starting the reform of Ontario.
