Carbon tax, HST relief coming to N.S.

Relief at the fuel pumps is on the way.

The Carbon Tax will be taken off of gas and diesel prices on Tuesday, April 1.

It comes on the same day the province is reducing the HST by one percentage point, to 14 percent.

The Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board says they’ll make the adjustment on Monday night at midnight.

They’re still adjusting the price as normal Thursday night at midnight.
