  • Adopting clean energy technologies can reduce household costs, with heat pumps often being more cost-effective than gas furnaces and air conditioners in most of Canada. It is estimated that the average household energy bill will decrease by 12% by 2050 as Canadians shift toward energy-efficient technologies.
  • Canada faces economic risks from U.S. protectionism and must remain competitive as major trading partners like the EU and UK implement border carbon pricing. Industrial carbon pricing is proposed as a way to reduce these tariff costs and keep revenues within Canada to fund decarbonization projects.
  • Climate-related financial damages in Canada are escalating, with insured climate damages exceeding 8.5 million dollars last year, surpassing the previous 2016 record of 6 billion. One study by the Canadian Climate Institute suggests that Canada would face losses of 25 billion this year compared to a stable climate scenario.
  • Global trends show a shift toward clean energy, with the IEA projecting clean energy investments to reach two trillion dollars in 2024 and forecasting that global fossil fuel demand will peak by 2030.
