Canada Carbon Rebate June 2025- Provincial Payout Breakdown and Amounts Explained
As part of Canada’s ongoing fight against climate change, the Canada Carbon Rebate (formerly the Climate Action Incentive) continues to support individuals and families by offsetting the cost of federal carbon pollution pricing.
The June 2025 carbon rebate marks the second quarterly payment of the year, and the amounts vary by province based on local fuel charge revenues.
This article breaks down who qualifies, how much each province will receive, and how Canadians can ensure their payment arrives on time.
What is the Canada Carbon Rebate?
The Canada Carbon Rebate is a tax-free quarterly payment issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to eligible households in provinces where the federal fuel charge applies.
The payments are designed to offset the cost of carbon pricing, particularly for low- and middle-income Canadians.
Previously known as the Climate Action Incentive Payment (CAIP), the program was renamed in 2024 to increase public awareness and accountability.
