We had a successful 2 days in Victoria speaking to policymakers of all political stripes about how B.C. can seize the opportunities of the zero-carbon transition to ensure competitiveness, good jobs & a strong economy. Thanks to all who met with us! #NewEconomyCanada #BCPoli

An op-ed I co-wrote to launch the Affordability Action Council & describe the opportunity to co-solve affordability & climate issues - through a low income retrofit program that offers bespoke deep energy retrofits that prioritize affordability. https://t.co/07OZdX80yZ

Good energy efficiency programs start with defining results you want and then giving professionals the flexibility to meet those objectives. If we want people to get off fossil fuels and have lower bills, let’s give programs the ability to do just that with all tools available

Struggling with 19% of their income going to energy costs, the Zheng family went from energy burden to relief through the Home Upgrades Program. Read their story:

“We need to move fast but community engagement needs to be slow” - hearing this over and over at #roadmapforth conference. The best way to address this is to invest in community support long term in service of future projects, it’s never too late to start!

Literally no one understands something more completely than a woman in a meeting who starts a question with “Just so I understand…”

Spent last 4 yrs advocating a low income home upgrades program in AB. told no more times than I can count. found amazing partners. Yesterday delivered a free deep energy upgrade for family that spends almost 20% of their income on energy bills. Taking a moment. What a feeling.

One stop shops are nothing new in the rebate world but what is awesome is that this best practice will now be codified in legislation. For those keeping score that’s in addition to mandatory equity requirements in CA. Now do Canada! https://t.co/cJjXnFXKgq

Evergreen tweet for community outreach to any demographic

👏🏾👏🏾 love to see it. A well designed program that has significant multi-solving impacts. Kambo’s Community Power is thrilled to be supporting a number of Nations to participate.

The irony of releasing an RFP that (in part) aims to remove barriers for low income households to access utility programs and requiring potential proponents to pay $70 just to read the document 🙈

Presenting at my alma mater @UBCSauderSchool on energy Justice and how procurement is the easiest and quickest way to build equity into our sector. Kudos to @ecotrustcanada for hosting an important conversation

Hearing from @yasmin_a of Kambo Energy Group about their programs, including Empower Me and @CommunityPwr #HomeEnergyJusticeForum #EnergyJustice

Been looking forward to this for many months. Congrats to @ecotrustcanada for hosting an important event. Looking forward to speaking next to some of my favorites @runardas @akantamn @CAHiggins and more!

It seems that free registration is only available to some speakers, and that doesn’t include me. The irony that they’re asking me to speak about equity and inclusion is apparently lost on them.

Asked to speak at a conference on equity & inclusive approaches to retrofitting vulnerable homes in Canada. Offered a free registration as a speaker but already paid. Organizers refuse to refund and said if I don’t like it I can withdraw as a speaker. You can’t make this shit up
