Reliable, affordable, low-emissions power is only gaining importance as electricity demand in Canada is expected to double by 2050. That is why on May 14, 2026, Canada announced a forthcoming National Electricity Strategy. This is our Team Canada plan to build a sustainable, affordable, prosperous and secure future, including in northern Canada, where access to electricity is more challenging, leading to northern and remote utility rates that are six- to ten-times higher than the national average. To that end, under the Strategy, the Government of Canada will work with territorial and Indigenous partners to support reliable, affordable electricity in the North that will secure our domestic economic and security interests and ensure an affordable future for Canadians.
