A majority of Saskatchewan residents back the province’s decision to remove the industrial carbon tax, a new poll suggests, nearly a year after the provincial government introduced the measure.
A poll released on Jan. 6 by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) says that 69 percent of Saskatchewanians support the provincial government’s decision to set the provincial industrial carbon tax to zero, a move that took effect April 1, 2025. Meanwhile, 24 percent said they don’t agree with the levy’s removal, split evenly between those who “somewhat oppose” it and those who “strongly oppose” it.
