As an example, let me refer to the typical case of a registered distributor selling fuel to another registered distributor. In that context, the second distributor could show an exemption certificate so that the first distributor does not have to pay the fuel charge. The obligation to pay the charge would then be transferred to the second registered distributor.
Furthermore, some carriers will have the right to use exemption certificates. They are mostly carriers that do a lot of interprovincial and international transportation. They will have to do a self-assessment for the fuel they use in the province.
There is also a big exception, which has been explained. The fuel charge is discussed in part 1 of the bill and a pricing regime based on performance in part 2. Companies or facilities that are subject to the regime specified in part 2 will have the right to submit exemption certificates to their suppliers. In that case, the fuel used in those facilities will be subject to the prices defined in part 2, not part 1, of the bill.
