Even better, these investments help insulate the economy against Trump's trade war. At the same time, enhancing supply of clean energy will also support value-adding exports like manufacturing & tech. This should be at the top of our nation-building economic agenda. #cdnecon

That's a step increase in employment of 20-30% for building trades employment. Sean Strickland from @cdntrades.bsky.social sums it up perfectly: "Canada’s transition to a cleaner economy represents one of the most significant job creation opportunities in our country’s history." #canlab /4

We estimated the job-creation spurred by 3 big categories of investment:
* Non-emitting energy production & transmission
* Energy-efficient buildings & district energy
* Sustainable transport
All told, this will produce an avg of 235-350,000 new construction jobs over 25 yrs. /3
