Notely says walk more or take the bus

Quote:
Notley realizes you will notice the pump price going up. For some Albertans, they can decide to change their behaviour.

And that doesn’t just mean possibly ditching your gas-guzzling wheels for something more economical.

That piece of advice from the premier was on the front page of the Sun a while ago.

This time, it’s use something other than your vehicle to get around.

“If you see there’s a few extra cents then it’s not just a question of having a more efficient vehicle. It could sometimes be a question of taking a bus, walking, those kinds of things in terms of the patterns of fuel use people engage in.”
Quote:
On top to hikes to gasoline and natural gas, the Notley NDP government says the carbon tax’s cost on consumer goods and services is an extra $70 to $105 a year for a typical Alberta family. These are costs they call “relatively minor.”

Notley says she doesn’t expect to see significant extra costs.
