Affordability?

 


The real affordability issue for Canadians is the “overdependence” on fossil fuels, Cosbey said. Over the lifetime of the product, it’s cheaper to power a car with electricity than gasoline, it’s cheaper to heat a home with a heat pump than natural gas, and it’s cheaper to cook on an induction stove. As long as Canadians use fossil fuels for electricity generation, heating and transportation, “we are going to be subject to the kind of inflationary impacts that we saw as we came out of COVID,” he said.

The source of the disinformation was the energy-industrial complex, which had launched one of the largest propaganda campaigns in history against the science of climate change. This corporate juggernaut chose shareholders over society, profits over people, and propaganda over science, and Republicans were duped more than most. https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/03/28/opinion/climate-denial-american-politics
