Affordability Action Plan
Fuel Tax Relief
High oil prices over the past year have led to elevated fuel
prices. Not only are drivers seeing an increase in costs, high fuel

Albertans. To assist with the rising fuel costs, the Government has
paused the collection of fuel taxes on gasoline and diesel until
June 30, 2023.
