New Brunswick is working on a deal to join Canada’s greener homes retrofit program, a government spokesperson says.
The federal Canada Greener Homes Affordability Program provides low- to median-income homeowners and tenants with no-cost upgrades, such as insulation and heat pumps.
The program began in 2025, and Manitoba was the first province to join it. Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and British Columbia joined at the end of June.
Alycia Bartlett, a spokesperson for New Brunswick’s Energy Department, said the province’s “intention is to participate” in the program.
