Madam Speaker, the greener homes program does more than just heat pumps. It provides Canadians from coast to coast the opportunity to improve the condition of their homes and assists by having the pumps put in. Not only will Canadians take up and use those incentives, but I suspect a good number of Canadians will also move forward even without the incentives. We need to encourage both, and I believe we are working in the right direction.

Madam Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his question. It is very important. For example, we put in place a goal to have a clean electricity system by 2035. We will need to work with those provinces that are not there yet. We will need to put in incentives to ensure they get there. We need to have a clean electrical grid, much like the province of Quebec does through hydroelectricity. Where that is not the case in other provinces, we need to create incentives and so forth for them to achieve those goals without penalizing the residents of those provinces.
