@energysmartohio @DustinMulvaney @nordicghp We need to get Chuck out of the truck and get him properly trained. The tech isn’t the issue, it’s available. The problem is Chuck sucks at installing it. Take a look at this recent report on ASHPs from FortisBC. https://t.co/EYEjVyil8J

@pmagn @thenarwhalca @FortisBC @jjhorgan .The problem with that argument is that you don't need #SiteC to provide electricity to those industries. BC can acquire the same amount of electricity as #SiteC from a number of other far cheaper (& less ecologically destructive) sources. We don't need the dam no matter what.

@FortisBC seems to think that their only responsibility to "mitigate potential environmental impacts." is cut down a few less trees and ignore the incredible contribution they are making to climate change.

@DaveInBlackburn @shawnmckean @FortisBC When I started advocating for safer roads never in my wildest dreams did I think that it would be so difficult to convince the powers that be that there is a problem & that it needs to be fixed.
We've had pretty good public engagement and yet despite that they still resist change

Dear folks eyeing up @FortisBC rebates.
What if one day you wake up and fossil fuels have a 30% tax because the Arctic has melted? Or cuz the forests have burned down? Or cuz diseases are being spread due to deforestation?
It's melting.
They're burning.
They're spreading.

So we were supposed to have access today from the Alley to OPS said @FortisBC this is a enormous health issue that Fortis does not seem to be taking seriously. For one our washrooms need to get emptied daily or they overflow. The washroom guy came this morning and got denied.
