Those who pick up a can or two of pop can expect to pay more from today. The province’s controversial sugary drink tax went into effect this morning. The province now charges an extra 20 cents per liter on a wide range of products, including pop and fruit-flavored drinks, as well as concentrated drink mixes, including flavored powders and fountain drinks and frozen slush. While the tax is touted as an effort to encourage people to make healthier choices, it is seen by many as a tax grab. The tax is expected to net the provincial government an additional $9 million annually.
