Federal Conservatives axe popular energy-saving program (Government of Canada) An early end to ecoENERGY grants program closed two months ahead of schedule, with an estimated less than half of the $400 Million set aside in Budget 2011 used.

Send A Message: Canadians Want to Save Energy First
Before Spending Billions on More Energy
Energy efficiency should be the first item on Canada's energy agenda. Canada is about to spend billions on new oil sands projects, pipelines, nuclear and fossil-fuel power stations, hydroelectric dams, solar projects, and wind farms. But as we prepare to generate more energy, it makes sense to save energy first.
We need to get serious about energy efficiency. The global
economy is struggling and governments want to create jobs. This is a
huge opportunity for Canadian governments to help Canadian families save
energy. Making our homes more energy-efficient creates jobs in all
communities.
We urgently need to send a clear message to decision makers that it's time for Canada to save energy first.
