# Saskatchewan vs Yukon EPR: Rules Compared

Last verified: November 5, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/compare/saskatchewan-vs-yukon

<a id="answer"></a>

Saskatchewan and Yukon both run packaging EPR, but the rules differ. Both set the lowest revenue exemption at CA$1,000,000. Both set the lowest weight exemption at 1 tonne. Both programmes set their first annual report for May 31. Yukon publishes the higher per-kilogram fee in 5 of 5 shared material classes.

## Saskatchewan and Yukon side by side

5 of 9 rows have a verified figure on each side of Saskatchewan and Yukon; a cell reads “not yet published” when a side has none, and an exemption row reads “none recorded; see thresholds” when no exemption is on record.

<a id="glance-table"></a>**Saskatchewan and Yukon: the measures both programmes publish**

| Measure | Saskatchewan | Yukon | Stricter |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Registration duty | Required | not yet published | Not comparable |
| Producer organisation | one producer responsibility organisation | one producer responsibility organisation | Not comparable |
| Lowest revenue exemption | CA$1,000,000 | CA$1,000,000 | Same |
| Lowest weight exemption | 1 tonne | 1 tonne | Same |
| First annual report date | May 31 | May 31 | Same |
| Published penalties | not yet published | not yet published | Not comparable |
| Report file | csv | csv | Not comparable |
| Paper fee, cheapest matched rate | 31 cents per kilogram | 136 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| Plastic fee, cheapest matched rate | 113 cents per kilogram | 588 cents per kilogram | Yukon |

<a id="calc-revenue"></a>The lowest revenue exemption is the same on both sides: CA$1,000,000. A seller just under that line is out of scope in Saskatchewan and in Yukon alike.

<a id="calc-mass"></a>The lowest weight exemption is the same on both sides: 1 tonne of packaging.

<a id="calc-report-date"></a>The first annual report date is the same on both sides, May 31.

<a id="calc-rates"></a>Across 5 shared material classes, Yukon publishes the higher cheapest per-kilogram fee in 5, and Saskatchewan in 0. A higher fee is not the same as a stricter rule; it is simply a larger published number per kilogram.

## Who runs the programme in Saskatchewan and Yukon

Who collects and who the producer files with, in Saskatchewan and then Yukon.

<a id="programme-table"></a>**Saskatchewan and Yukon: how each programme is set up**

| Aspect | Saskatchewan | Yukon |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Regime | Household Packaging and Paper Stewardship Program Regulations, 2023 | Extended Producer Responsibility Regulation, OIC 2024/19 (effective 2024-01-25; launched 2025-11-01) |
| Regulator | not yet published | Government of Yukon, Ministry of the Environment |
| Producers obligated | Yes | Yes |
| Registration | Required, SK Recycles producer portal | not yet published |
| Producer organisation | one producer responsibility organisation: SK Recycles; membership required | one producer responsibility organisation: Circular Materials; membership required |
| Revenue counted as | not yet published | gross revenue inside the jurisdiction, CAD, completed year |
| Who counts as the producer | primary: brand owner, importer, seller; secondary: brand owner, importer, seller; tertiary: brand owner, importer, seller | other: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; primary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; secondary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; service: seller, online marketplace; shipping: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace; tertiary: brand owner, importer, seller, online marketplace |

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Saskatchewan: the regulator. Reason: Regulator naming from program pages; the regulation text (earlier URL 404) was not read.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Saskatchewan: the rules on transferring responsibility. Reason: Transfer rules not read.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Saskatchewan: how revenue is counted. Reason: Whether the revenue test is Saskatchewan-only was not stated on the page.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Yukon: the registration duty. Reason: Registration wording not read.

> **Not yet published**: Not yet published for Yukon: the rules on transferring responsibility. Reason: Summarised.

Both programmes organise producer responsibility the same way: one producer responsibility organisation. The practical differences between Saskatchewan and Yukon therefore sit in thresholds, fees, dates and report formats rather than in whom a producer deals with.

<a id="scope"></a>

## What Saskatchewan and Yukon cover, side by side

Each row below is one published feature of the two programmes; a cell reads “not yet published” when Saskatchewan or Yukon has no verified entry for it in the dataset.

<a id="scope-table"></a>**Scope, producer duties, categories, labelling and targets, Saskatchewan and Yukon**

| Aspect | Saskatchewan | Yukon |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Producer duty: primary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Producer duty: secondary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Producer duty: tertiary packaging | brand_owner; importer; seller | brand_owner; importer; seller; marketplace |
| Reporting categories | 19, material category | 36, material category |
| Exemption 1 | Under 1,000 kg to Saskatchewan residents | Charity, under CAD 1,000,000 Yukon revenue or under one tonne |

<a id="thresholds"></a>

## Thresholds and exemptions in Saskatchewan and Yukon

Every verified threshold Saskatchewan and Yukon publish, as each states it.

<a id="thresholds-table"></a>**Verified thresholds in Saskatchewan and Yukon**

| Place | Measure | Amount | Effect | Basis as published |
| --- | --- | ---: | --- | --- |
| Saskatchewan | packaging weight | 1,000 kg | exempt below | annual supply to Saskatchewan residents |
| Saskatchewan | packaging weight | 5,000 kg | flat-fee band | 1,000 to 5,000 kg |
| Saskatchewan | revenue | CA$1,000,000 | exempt below | annual revenue |
| Yukon | revenue | CA$1,000,000 | exempt below | revenue in Yukon |
| Yukon | packaging tonnage | 1 tonne | exempt below | supply |

<a id="a-exemption-low-volume"></a>Saskatchewan exemption: Under 1,000 kg to Saskatchewan residents It does not have to be applied for.

<a id="a-exemption-small-revenue"></a>Saskatchewan exemption: Businesses under CAD 1 million in annual revenue It does not have to be applied for.

<a id="b-exemption-small-steward"></a>Yukon exemption: Charity, under CAD 1,000,000 Yukon revenue or under one tonne It does not have to be applied for.

Read the basis column first: the same amount can exempt a producer in one programme and only simplify its report in another.

The lowest revenue exemption is the same on both sides: CA$1,000,000. A seller just under that line is out of scope in Saskatchewan and in Yukon alike.

The lowest weight exemption is the same on both sides: 1 tonne of packaging.

<a id="rates"></a>

## Fees per kilogram for shared materials

5 material classes have a published rate on both sides; each row shows the cheapest rate that fits the class.

<a id="rates-table"></a>**Cheapest published rate per kilogram by material class, Saskatchewan and Yukon**

| Material class | Saskatchewan (CAD per kg) | Yukon (CAD per kg) | Higher fee |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 31 cents per kilogram | 136 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| plastic | 113 cents per kilogram | 588 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| glass | 30 cents per kilogram | 122 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| aluminium | 86 cents per kilogram | 455 cents per kilogram | Yukon |
| steel | 46 cents per kilogram | 211 cents per kilogram | Yukon |

Scaling the cheapest published rate by weight shows what the gap between Saskatchewan and Yukon amounts to for a given tonnage of one material. The amounts are the rate times the weight, nothing added.

<a id="rates-scale"></a>**Fee at the cheapest published rate for 1 to 100,000 kilograms, Saskatchewan and Yukon**

<a id="faq"></a>

## Questions about comparing these two programmes

### <a id="q1"></a>Is Saskatchewan or Yukon stricter on packaging EPR?

Both set the lowest revenue exemption at CA$1,000,000. Both set the lowest weight exemption at 1 tonne. Both programmes set their first annual report for May 31. Yukon publishes the higher per-kilogram fee in 5 of 5 shared material classes.

### <a id="q2"></a>Do I register in both Saskatchewan and Yukon?

Saskatchewan requires producers to register. Yukon has not yet published its registration duty.

### <a id="q3"></a>How do the fees per kilogram compare in Saskatchewan and Yukon?

Across 5 shared material classes, Yukon publishes the higher cheapest per-kilogram fee in 5, and Saskatchewan in 0. A higher fee is not the same as a stricter rule; it is simply a larger published number per kilogram.

### <a id="q4"></a>Which deadline comes first, Saskatchewan or Yukon?

The first annual report date is the same on both sides, May 31.
