The federal natural resources minister says Saskatchewan residents won't get a carbon rebate, after the province announced Thursday it would stop remitting the levy on natural gas to Ottawa.

Morons is being too nice.

Our annual rebate for a rural household of 2 adults is about $1000. That doesn't sound like much, but that represents 4% of our total pre-tax income from all sources.

Edit: we're retired, BTW.

You only have $25,000 as a pre-tax income for 2 people?

If you're not retired, it's time to start a union.

Retired. I should have included that in my comment. I'll go back and do that now.

Thanks.
