Description

Canada has promised to reach Net Zero emissions from our grids by 2035. At the same time, as ordinary Canadians transition to things like electric vehicles and home heat pumps, we're going to need more power. Like, a lot more. So how do we scale up the system at the same time as making it cleaner? How much time do we have?What sacrifices might we have to make? And who pays the bill in the end?GUEST: Colin Guldimann, economist at RBC, author of The Price of Power report
