Extra charges redeeming avios on EI?

Hi All,

I redeemed avios on EI in May 2018 for DUB YYZ and I paid CAD 52 (~EUR 35) in taxes. This was done on avios.com.
Looking at the same redemption in Oct 2019 this year on avios.com, it says I have to pay CAD 156.4 (~EUR 104) in taxes.
What else have they started charging on redemption tickets? Would calling BA to book EI instead waive the "extras"?
Looking at itamatrix I'm seeing this UP and YQ for ~EUR 35 in total and that's it:
