Not familiar with what you are specifically referring to, although the Fed gvt has been 'partnering' monetarily on a variety of green initiatives.
The article only says that the province wants back what the residents of the province paid in Whatever that means

The Sask Minister of Environment is saying that the $62 million that the Feds are holding for an emissions reduction program should not be withheld because that money was already paid through their taxes to Ottawa by the people of Sask.
I'm really pleased that Sask is taking a strong position on this as the Feds are using the transfer payment system to blackmail every province to their whim.
If you look back over time, a number of Fed gvts have taken steps in reducing the actual Fed responsibilities and downloading that cost to the provinces, so this national carbon tax scheme is, in my eyes, little more than a forced program of taxing their respective populations in order to eliminate more Fed transfers
No problem, but do bear in mind that this is my interpretation/opinion on things.
The simple fact that this trade partnership, or whatever the f*ck it's called, consists of the two most heavily indebted sub-sovereign jurisdictions on the planet and one sub-sovereign jurisdiction that's regarded as the most corrupt province/state in the US and Canada is enough to let me know that we are well and truly screwed.
And ironically, this ties us to a state that has over 40 active oil fields, several of which produce the same thick, gooey bitumen as Alberta sans the sand.
Typical hypocrisy from the neo-Liberal rectum rangers too. Hitch a carbon cap and trade cart to an oil producing state that helped to trash Alberta's oil industry.
Ask him about tax credits. That's always good for a laugh
Not possible. You have to be open to learning.
What would you like to know?
Thank goodness for Google.
Thanks for the memorial page and go fund me link for a fallen brother.
It shows you care.
We appreciate that kind of proactive behavior

It is NOT government money. It is money that was stolen from working people, some of whom reside in Saskabrush and they rightfully want some of it back for worthy programs.
That would give electric cars a better chance of getting from one end of the driveway to the other.
If taxation is theft, then taxation for what you consider worthy programs is theft. It matters not what the purpose is, just as a thief who steals your wallet to feed his children is no less a thief than one who steals your wallet to feed his drug habit.
That's a fact. Unless it is given voluntarily it is theft. Yes there are some government programs I would consider essential and would freely donate some of my hard earned money to. Just as there are some charities I give to and some I won't have anything to do with.
