The article states that the provincial government believes its cap and trade system will “add $5 a month to home heating bills and 4.3 cents to the price of a litre of gasoline,” and plans on auctioning off pollution credits generated to raise $1.9 billion annually that would then be used to “help people and companies transition to a low carbon economy.”
