Our argument
Cheap clean power should be a chance to lower bills. Canada does not need to make every panel at home to gain from it. We want safe low-cost imports, fair install prices and a clear route to connect.
What must change
Keep safe, low-cost solar within reach. Drop rules that add no value. Check if lower import fees reach buyers.
What a win looks like
Lower whole-system costs for useful clean power, with safety and labour safeguards in place.
