The way Calgary calculates the Municipal franchise fee, the market cost of the gas does impact that charge.

But that's supposed to stop and go to a consumption based model. Which as best as I understood was in the works to happen by 2027...and current regulations being the delay. More politicians saying they're making a difference when they're just taking out a barrier they previously created.

There's a lot of variation in that fee though. I'm in St.Albert where we pay 20.3% of the other fees to make up our franchise fee. In Edmonton its 35%. Looking at a list last night its anywhere from 10 to 37% depending on the Municipality
