Prime Minister Mark Carney traveled to Sherbrooke, Quebec on October 8, 2026, to announce new clean energy measures. Ahead of the announcement at 11:45 a.m., government officials provided background information to journalists. During his campaign for the Liberal leadership last year, Carney promised incentives to encourage Canadians to make their homes more energy-efficient through retrofits. Specifically, he proposed adding funding to the Greener Homes Grant program for lower-income households and exploring discounts for low- and medium-income homeowners making such improvements. At a press conference in April, Carney reaffirmed his commitment to these measures.
