As part of their Climate Change Plan, the federal government implemented a coordinated nation-wide carbon price beginning at $20 per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions (tCO2e) in 2019. As of April 1, 2023 this cost has increased by 225% to $65 per tonne. All provinces and territories must maintain a carbon price of at least $65 per tCO2e in 2023.

This increase effects multiple aspects of the economy and impacts costs across our entire network ranging from transportation costs to energy costs for heating, to equipment purchases and maintenance.

As a result of this change, we have incurred an increase in our overall costs. As such, it is necessary for us to apply a Carbon Surcharge of 2.5% effective September 1st, 2023 for all shipments handled across our network.

Please see updated Extended Area points to be effective May 3rd.
