Saskatchewan’s premier says a big jump in inflation in several Maritime provinces shows carbon taxes contribute to inflation.

“The biggest jumps were in the Atlantic provinces of NS, NL and PEI,” Premier Scott Moe wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, referring to July inflation numbers from Statistics Canada that came out on Aug. 15.
