(LifeSiteNews) – The Saskatchewan government has rejected climate policies by Trudeau’s federal government that would cost the province over a hundred billion dollars.
On Tuesday, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe announced that his government will be taking steps to ensure that Canadians in his province are not subject to certain intrusive federal policies regarding the environment that were estimated by Saskatchewan’s Ministry of Finance to cost the province over $111 billion by 2035.
“It’s time to defend and assert Saskatchewan’s economic autonomy by ‘drawing the line,’ taking a number of steps including the introduction of provincial legislation to clarify and protect Saskatchewan’s constitutional rights,” Moe said.
These federal policies that Saskatchewan is rejecting include federal carbon tax policies and mandates on oil, gas, and fertilizer. The Ministry of Finance released a statement that broke down what these new policies would mean for the province, estimating that it would cost Saskatchewan $111 billion by 2035 and $11,023 for each resident in 2035 alone.
