Bill 5: Revenue Administration Act No. 2 (Amdt.)

Any business that buys gasoline at retail in Newfoundland and Labrador is directly affected — think of a tradesperson fuelling a work truck, a small trucking or delivery operation buying diesel, a fishing boat operator, or a small aviation charter service. The reduced rate of $0.075 per litre on 'all other grades' (everyday pump gasoline) lowers fuel costs compared to the previous rate. Businesses with larger vehicle fleets or heavy fuel consumption — like couriers, contractors, or transport operators — will notice the savings most. Diesel users pay $0.095 per litre and marine operators (non-pleasure craft) pay $0.035 per litre, rates that matter to commercial fishers and coastal freight operators across the province.
