Yard rebates in Québec
4 programs can pay Québec residents for yard projects: 3 run by the council or the utilities that serve it, and 1 open to anyone in Quebec. The largest, Québec City Diseased Elm Removal Subsidy, pays up to $2,000 per household.
Utility programs only apply to that utility’s customers, so check who supplies your water and power.
