Alberta’s government is holding off on reinstating its fuel tax despite soaring gas prices, as federal opposition leader Pierre Poilievre pushes for a longer pause—until 2027—to save Canadians around $1,000 per household. Alberta’s own relief program, once tied to oil prices, was replaced with a one-time $100 rebate that only a third of eligible residents have claimed. Finance officials say they’re monitoring oil prices but won’t commit to new aid yet, citing flaws in the old system and higher-than-expected revenues. The federal government estimates its own tax pause would save families $124 on average, alongside other affordability measures like groceries benefits and carbon tax removal. Premier Danielle Smith acknowledges the strain but notes Alberta’s tax is already among the lowest nationally—even the province’s own opposition now calls for suspending the fuel tax to ease household costs.
