Province Launches Carbon Pricing Plan Survey

Mar 03, 2017

The province is launching an online survey in regards to the carbon pricing plan being imposed by the federal government.

The survey is part the Manitoba government's efforts to develop a Manitoba Climate and Green Plan.

“The federal government is directing all provinces to bring in a carbon price beginning in 2018. While Manitobans understand the importance of environmental protection, our government has an equal responsibility to ensure we stimulate investments in clean energy and green growth that will create sustainable jobs throughout our province,” said Manitoba Sustainable Development Minster Cathy Cox. “We want Manitobans to tell us what impact this will have on their families and to tell us their ideas of other steps we could take to grow our economy while we protect our environment.”

Manitoba’s plan will include measures to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and adopt energy-saving technologies and through the survey Manitobans will be able to offer their suggestions of what initiatives potential carbon pricing revenue could be directed toward.

The survey can be found at www.manitoba.ca/climateandgreenplan.

Submissions will be accepted until Sunday, March 19.
