Ford wants to force people to be hooked on expensive, dirty fossil gas. But heat pumps are cheaper and cleaner.
That’s why more people are installing heat pumps than gas furnaces in the US. That’s why heat pump sales are growing by 40% in the EU.
Ford is imposing higher costs and more pollution.

I voted NO to the govt’s bill to subsidize Enbridge to expand fossil gas hook-ups because there are cheaper alternatives for consumers like heat pumps and because we are in a climate emergency.
Ford chose to support gas giant Enbridge, Greens chose to support the people.

Mr. Carney said instead of subsidizing one more battery plant, he would have directed the federal purse to pay for a million-plus heat pumps for people who need them most.
“Some of these choices need to be more deliberately directed at people,” he said.

Depressed—and a bit shocked, tbh—that @opl_bpo has to ask for donations. How many City services are more essential than libraries?
I guess this is what years of low property taxes and car-first policies gets you 🫠
