The City of New Westminster is the FIRST municipality in Canada to pass a maximum heat bylaw. 🌡️🥵

Our homes are our first line of defense against extreme heat.

As climate events increase in frequency and severity, it’s more important than ever for Canadians to have access to safe temperatures.

Canadians are saving hundreds of dollars every month by electrifying the homes they live in and the cars they drive.

But clean energy tech offers more than cost savings: they make our homes more comfortable and the air we breathe in safer.

Explore the full benefits of clean tech 👇

With growing climate risks, retrofits are critical to keeping homes resilient and insurable.

They reduce wildfire smoke exposure, limit damage from extreme weather, and improve indoor air quality — benefits that rarely show up on utility bills.

We need to value retrofits properly 👉 buff.ly/m0hQrPF

B.C.’s zero-emission vehicle target will directly affect households, public health and local jobs.

Maintaining ambitious EV leadership can save households money, prevent pollution-related deaths, and grow B.C’s clean tech economy.

Ontario can’t have it both ways.

Fast-tracking the critical mineral sector while pushing back against GHG targets misses a key point: EVs drive demand for those minerals.

Protecting Ontario auto jobs means aligning the sector with where the global market is headed. #onpoli

B.C. has 380+ companies and 8000+ jobs in the EV sector. 🚗🔌

Strong EV targets keep that investment and growth in B.C. Weakening them risks slowing momentum just as the global market is accelerating.

We wrote to Premier David Eby on why maintaining strong targets matters. 🎯 #bcpoli

Retrofits aren’t just climate solutions — they're affordability tools. 🏗️🏠

Alberta households could save over $600 a year through cleaner electricity and energy-efficient homes, while the prov. avoids more than $1B in wasted energy costs.

The path to energy security now runs through electrification National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views.

Oil & gas price volatility is global. But electricity is local, stable, and already one of Canada’s biggest competitive advantages.

Doubling our electricity supply, electrification, and energy productivity means energy security, lower costs and long-term resilience.

Strong vehicle emissions standards drive the EV transition. 🎯

Weak targets do the opposite — slowing adoption and jeopardizing Canada’s goal of 75% EV sales by 2035.

Think heat pumps can’t handle Canadian winters? ❄️🍁

In Europe’s coldest countries, they’re already the norm — and they’re 2-3x more efficient than gas boilers, even well below zero.

Retrofits make homes warmer, cheaper to heat, and ready for the future.

Canada can prevent 62 Mt fewer cumulative emissions from entering the atmosphere by increasing the ambition of its vehicle emissions standard. 🚗🔌

With a 40 g/mile cap, we can lower vehicle pollution while ensuring we're on track for the transition to a zero-emission fleet.

Trucks create 30% of Canada’s transportation emissions — despite making up only 4% of the vehicles on our roads.🛻📈

Electrifying commercial fleets can unlock Canada's economic potential: but this requires bold leadership, shares our Sr. Director Monica Curtis.

Canadians remain deeply concerned about climate change — and they expect leaders to act.

✔️ 70% say they’d feel proud if Canada became a renewable energy superpower.
❌ Only 30% feel that way about oil and gas.

Toronto’s buildings produce 58% of the city’s emissions, but the retrofit of two aging towers shows a different story: warmer homes in winter, cooler homes in summer, and real comfort for residents — all while cutting energy use dramatically. 🏢📉

It was once thought that an increase in electric vehicles would strain Canada’s electricity grid.

But our new research tells a different story: electric trucks would add just 1.5% to Toronto’s daily electricity demand by 2030 — well within normal daily fluctuations.

Lower-carbon concrete is becoming the preferred choice in Canada — not the exception.

“We can do this today — the innovations are there, the technology is there, Canada is a global leader — we just need to unlock it at scale.”

New housing legislation is driving an ambitious mandate for new affordable housing in Canada — but 70% of today’s buildings will still be standing in 2050.

We need retrofits in the plan to ensure existing buildings are resilient and affordable for the Canadians calling them home.

In 2025, wind and solar energy generated 30% of the EU’s electricity supply, overtaking fossil fuels (29% of electricity) for the first time. This historic first was supported by a 19% increase in solar capacity. www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

Canada’s new vehicle emissions standard is a positive starting point but should be seen as a minimum baseline of ambition.

If the gov’t is serious about ensuring we remain competitive in an electrifying world, we need stronger regulations to keep emissions falling. 📉
