Monitor Your Bills
Covering how to read, track, and identify trends in your fuel, electricity and water bills.

Participants are encouraged to bring copies of their bills, particularly if they have questions about how they work in the NWT.
(Note for Virtual Participants: This presentation will primarily cover bills in Yellowknife, meaning information on Water and Power bills will differ slightly for other communities. We will touch on bills outside of Yellowknife briefly, but you may want to reach out to your region’s coordinator for more information on how bills work in your community)
This presentation takes approximately 1.5 hours.
