SaskEnergy is once again making a project available to low income homeowners, who have a combined income of less than $68 thousand, to have their heating system inspected and maintained ahead of the heating season. The gas company’s Shannon Doka says last year, they helped out 95 home owners in a pilot project. They were testing out the idea to see if it was something the Crown Corporation could do as part of their community investment. Information, and application forms, for the Tune Up Assistance program are on SaskEnergy’s website. [CJGX]

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.
Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.
The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.
T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
