The federal government’s planned phase-out of heating oil would be paired with more financial support for Canadians to purchase and install heat pumps instead

Minister of Natural Resources Jonathan Wilkinson speaks during an announcement at Industrial Equipment Manufacturing, in Surrey, B.C., on July 15, 2024..

It seeks to accelerate retrofitting of existing buildings, ensure buildings are climate-resilient and use lower-carbon building materials and technology. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said the intention was to allow people with oil furnaces more time and money to replace them with electric heat pumps.

The document says there would be exemptions for regions without sufficient access to the electricity grid, and where backup fuel is required.
