Less than a day after finding out the province’s carbon pricing plan was being rejected by the federal government, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe still couldn’t understand why.
“We view this as a very arbitrary and quite problematic denial for the province of Saskatchewan,” Moe said Tuesday of Ottawa’s latest decision surrounding the carbon tax in Saskatchewan.
Speaking to reporters outside Saskatoon in the smoke-filled haze from northern wildfires, Moe was bewildered how his province’s carbon pricing plan to fight climate change was rejected yet again.
