Rate hike approved last Thursday
Get set for an increase on your natural gas bill.
Last week, the Ontario Energy Board approved a 4.9 per cent rate hike for Enbridge gas.
It means, the average customer will pay about $75 dollars more annually.
Enbridge blames the increase on Russia's war against Ukraine and strong domestic and global demand.
The rate increase takes effect on Saturday.
