Secretary of State for Rural Development Buckley Belanger is scheduled to highlight Canada's announced home energy measures in Saskatoon on Friday, including a rebate intended to make efficient heating and cooling more affordable.
An Oct. 22 media advisory from Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada said the National Heat Pump Rebate is part of measures aimed at lowering home energy costs and reducing emissions. The government says the rebate is intended to ease the cost of efficient heating and cooling systems for households.
The event is scheduled for 11:15 a.m. ET (15:15 UTC), or 9:15 a.m. Saskatoon time, Friday at Saskatchewan Polytechnic, 400, 119–4th Avenue South, Saskatoon.
The advisory did not give a rebate amount, eligibility criteria or an implementation date.
