Saskatchewan is also increasing park administrative fees, including lease applications and renewals, building permits and shore maintenance.
The province is also reducing wholesale liquor mark-ups for wines with alcohol content between 14.5 and 16 per cent, expecting to save retailers $226,000.
Saskatchewan is also applying a new $1,000 flat fee for construction permits of hazardous goods facilities.
