Money first; Alberta plans to bring in prepay law on gas fill-ups
EDMONTON – Alberta is planning to bring in legislation that would require drivers to prepay before filling up at gas stations.
Government house leader Brian Mason isn’t saying whether the law would dictate that drivers pay at the pump or involve some other payment method.
Mason says the bill will be the first one introduced when the fall sitting of the house begins next week.
He notes there have been two recent deaths of workers trying to prevent gas-and-dash robberies.
