Notely says walk more or take the bus

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.”

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.
