On Tuesday, May 24, Environment Minister Shannon Phillips
introduced Bill 20 for the first reading into the Alberta
legislature. This Bill deals with the details of how the
government of Alberta will implement an Alberta Carbon Levy. It is
expected that this will have significant impact on businesses and
individuals alike.
A detailed analysis assessing the impact of this legislation will
be prepared and forwarded to you by BLG shortly. In the
