#NewBrunswick is "sitting on" dozens of gigawatts of off-shore energy - more than enough for 6.5 million homes - leaving 60% for export.

#NBPower has no interest in pursuing our best path away from fossil fuel. #NovaScotia has no interest in completing the #atlanticLoop.

We could have enough power in 5-8 years to go 100% carbon free in 6 provinces. If we had started in 2015 when these findings were released, we could be there right now. #untapped
