I think they are trying to make up the shortfall from removing the toll from the Harbour bridges last year.

I thought Alberta was first but Saskatchewan increased theirs from $150 to $300 so they must have been first. Alberta's rate is $200.

The flat rate is probably easier to administer than going by odometer readings but they could at least provide different classes. A first gen Nissan Leaf, Toyota BZ, Hyundai IONIQ 9, and Cadillac Escalade IQL are all going to wear a road differently.

Example:
Under 100 kW charge rate or 40kWh battery, and under 2500 kg GVWR: $100
Under 2500 kg: $150
2500-3999 kg: $200
4000-5499 kg: $300
