#Canada already has extremely high levels of renewable energy powering their grids, so they could EASILY get to 100% through solar. As in for mid-2026.
Renewables by Province/Territory:
#BritishColumbia 98%
#Manitoba 97%
#Quebec 99%
#NFLD 95%
#Yukon 90%
#Ontario 90% (incl nuclear)
Amp up the others.
