Carbon price rebates rising in most provinces April 1

The federal carbon price will increase April 1 to $85 per tonne, up from $60. The quarterly rebates associated with it — which the Liberals rebranded Wednesday as the "Canada Carbon Rebate" — are also getting their once-a-year overhaul.

The Canada Carbon Rebate puts more money into the pockets of Canadian families while also helping to slash harmful carbon emissions.
