Canada’s conservative leader wants to scrap clean fuel standard

July 9, 2019 |

In Canada, The Canadian Press reports that the leader of the conservative party has written a letter to the Prime Minister that the new clean fuel standard that promotes increased use of biofuels to lower greenhouse gas emissions of fuels will increase prices at the pump by 4 cents per liter and reaching 11 cents by 2022. He has vowed that if his party wins the election this fall that he will scrap the standards all together and has asked the PM in his letter to dump the regulations now rather than waiting for a new government to make the change.
