Bill C‑30 includes a fairly significant measure, namely, the temporary suspension of the excise tax on diesel and gasoline. This involves removing the excise tax of 10¢ per litre for a period of approximately 20 weeks. For example, for a family filling up with 50 litres, taking applicable sales taxes into account, this represents potential savings of $5.75 per tank.
This is part of the measures already administered by the Canada Revenue Agency. They are also included in Bill C‑30.
