We need more solar and wind power to generate electricity. All these just focus on consumption. With these hot summers the water levels drop and could lead to less hydro electric power being generated.

Create an energy surplus and sell it to our “friendly” neighbours down south with their massive AI data centres at a premium.

We have lot of shoreline to take advantage of wind. The provincial government should make a deal with the Haisla Nation to transition away from LNG to Wind.
