Prebble稱為加拿大良好氣候變化政策的大型發射機。加拿大最近的一份氣候研究所報告說，加拿大的工業碳定價計劃將是加拿大減少到2030年的最大驅動力。

The Canadian province of Saskatchewan will no longer collect an industrial carbon tax, premier Scott Moe announced this week.

總理斯科特·莫（Scott Moe）本周宣布，加拿大薩斯喀徹溫省將不再收取工業碳稅。

The province’s large emitter pricing scheme is the workhorse of good climate change policy in Canada, according to Ben Prebble, the director of the Nature Institute.

自然研究所主任本·帕布爾（Ben Prebble）表示，該省的大型發射機定價計劃是加拿大良好氣候變化政策的主力軍。

A recent Canadian Climate Institute report said the industrial carbon pricing scheme in Canada will be the single biggest driver of emissions reductions in Canada by 2030.

加拿大最近的一份氣候研究所報告說，加拿大的工業碳定價計劃將是加拿大減少到2030年的最大驅動力。

The pricing change also worried Prebble in terms of green investment.

定價變化也擔心綠色投資的興趣。

“Eliminating our climate plans undermines Saskatchewan’s reputation internationally and cancelling the industrial price on carbon is creating uncertainty for business and investors who will have been planning clean technology investments,” he said.

他說：“消除我們的氣候計劃在國際上破壞了薩斯喀徹溫省的聲譽，並取消碳的工業價格正在為正在計劃清潔技術投資的企業和投資者造成不確定性。”

He was also worried about the grants for emissions reductions that Saskatchewan’s price on carbon had been meant to feed.

他還擔心薩斯喀徹溫省對碳的價格的減少撥款的贈款。

Prebble also said it will put Saskatchewan in a deficit position for the coming fiscal year — the 2025-26 budget included $431 million in revenue from the tax — the premier said this week his government will still work to deliver a surplus budget, calling the tax change “immaterial”.

Prebble還表示，這將使薩斯喀徹溫省在未來財政年度處於赤字狀態 - 2025 - 26年的預算包括4.31億美元的稅收收入。

This move is another in a list of changes Prebble said the province has made against environmental policy.

Prebble表示該省已根據環境政策做出的更改清單中的另一項舉動。

He said the government is signalling it plans to keep its coal-fired power plants into the 2040s, and efficiency regulations for new building construction have been rolled back.

他說，政府表示，它計劃將其燃煤發電廠保存到2040年代，並將新建築建設的效率法規撤退。

“All of this adds up to really putting Saskatchewan’s climate change policy under the bus,” said Prebble.

Prebble說：“所有這些加起來都將薩斯喀徹溫省的氣候變化政策置於公共汽車之下。”

He said this is Saskatchewan setting a bad example for the global community at a time when strong climate policy is needed.

他說，這是薩斯喀徹溫省為全球社區設定一個不好的榜樣，當時需要強大的氣候政策。

Wheat Growers happy with decision

小麥種植者對決定感到滿意

The Saskatchewan Wheat Growers Association celebrated the decision to get rid of the industrial carbon tax this week

“I think it’s a great decision by the Saskatchewan government,” chair of the association, Daryl Fransoo, said in an interview with CTV News Channel.

協會主席達里爾·弗蘭索（Daryl Fransoo）在接受CTV新聞頻道採訪時說：“我認為這是薩斯喀徹溫政府的一個很好的決定。”

“Farmers are the backbone of the provincial economy, yet we’ve been hit hard with tariffs and taxes and everything over over the last several years.”

“農民是省經濟的骨幹，但在過去幾年中，我們被關稅和稅收以及一切都受到了打擊。”

He said the decision will put money back into the pockets of farmers and improve the province’s position in the markets.

他說，這一決定將把錢放回農民的口袋中，並改善該省在市場上的地位。

“Any time that we can be made more competitive globally, because we do, we do compete on a global level is a good thing for agriculture in Saskatchewan.”

“任何時候我們可以在全球範圍內更具競爭力，因為我們這樣做，我們在全球範圍內競爭對於薩斯喀徹溫省的農業來說是一件好事。”

The Saskatchewan Heavy Construction Association (SHCA) said the decision will give some much-needed relief to industry.

薩斯喀徹溫省重型建築協會（SHCA）表示，該決定將為工業提供一些急需的救濟。

“Premier Moe’s decision to pause the industrial carbon tax is a welcome step that will help to mitigate the rising cost of living and provide some much-needed relief to industries in Saskatchewan,” SHCA President Shantel Lipp said in a news release.

Shca總裁Shantel Lipp在新聞稿中說：“ Moe總理決定暫停工業碳稅是一個可喜的步驟，這將有助於減輕生活成本的上升，並為薩斯喀徹溫省的行業提供一些急需的救濟。”

“By pausing the industrial carbon tax, our members will see reduced financial pressures on key materials and inputs, allowing for more competitive project costs and greater investment in the province’s infrastructure.”

“通過暫停工業碳稅，我們的成員將看到關鍵材料和投入的財務壓力減輕，從而使項目成本更具競爭力，並在該省基礎設施中進行了更大的投資。”

The association noted the industrial carbon tax has increased the cost for construction materials like steel, asphalt, and concrete.

該協會指出，工業碳稅增加了鋼，瀝青和混凝土等建築材料的成本。

The Saskatchewan Cattle Association, the Saskatchewan Farm Stewardship Association, Mosaic Canada, the Saskatchewan Association for Rural Municipalities, and the Saskatchewan Realtors Association all put their support behind the Saskatchewan government’s move as well.

薩斯喀徹溫省牛協會，薩斯喀徹溫省農場管理協會，加拿大馬賽克，薩斯喀徹溫省農村市政當局協會以及薩斯喀徹溫省房地產經紀人協會也支持薩斯喀徹溫省政府的舉動。
