Native Prairie Appreciation Week hosts webinars to help educate people on their local ecosystem
This week is Native Prairie Appreciation Week, where environmental groups take the time to recognize the prairie's unique ecosystem and how people can learn more about it. For the Saskatchewan Prairie Conservation Action Plan (PCAP), the week is an opportunity to talk about how we can keep the prairie ecosystem resilient.
Manager for PCAP, Carolyn Gaudet, talks about the week and why she feels it is important to celebrate the week as it enters its 27th year.
Gas prices could lower after consumer carbon tax rescinded - but there's a catch
The federal government has announced that they will be repealing the consumer side of the federal carbon tax, with an Order In Council imposed to remove that starting March 31st. The move comes as another hike in the tax was expected to go through on April 1st.
While the change in prices may come once the month switches around, for now, GasBuddy Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan says prices won't see drastic changes right away.
