Some cities want to take away your choice of affordable energy.

They’re planning to ban natural gas in new homes and buildings—no more gas-powered heating, hot water systems, or even stoves. But in reality, these bans just drive up costs and restrict your options.

Dan McTeague, President of Canadians for Affordable Energy, says:

“Banning natural gas hurts people. It makes energy more costly and less reliable.”

Here’s what they’re not telling you:

Natural gas is affordable. Replacing it with electric systems like heat pumps costs more — a lot more — especially for families and small businesses.

Our power grid isn’t ready. A sudden switch to electric heating will put massive pressure on the system, leading to blackouts and even higher costs.

There are health concerns — but they’re overblown. Claims about gas stoves and indoor air ignore real-world data and existing safety standards.

We all want to protect the environment — but banning natural gas is not the way. These bans will hurt low-income Canadians the most, and they do little to reduce global emissions.
