Frequently Asked Questions

What is the carbon tax rate in 2026?
The federal consumer carbon tax (fuel charge) was eliminated on March 15, 2025. All fuel charge rates were set to zero. The Climate Action Incentive Payment (CAIP) rebate program also ended.
Who gets the Climate Action Incentive rebate?
Residents of provinces where the federal backstop applies (ON, AB, SK, MB, and Atlantic provinces) receive quarterly CAIP payments. Most households receive more in rebates than they pay in carbon costs.
Does BC have a carbon tax?
BC has its own provincial carbon tax system and is not part of the federal backstop, so BC residents do not receive the CAIP rebate.
