Everyone loves talking about the 'Green Economy.' They talk about heat pumps, solar panels, and energy efficiency. But they’re ignoring the dirty reality of how we get there. Before you can make an old building 'Green,' you have to strip out the 'Grey'—the asbestos, the lead, the silica.

Right now, the government wants a Green Revolution, but they are treating the soldiers on the front line like they’re disposable. You cannot claim to care about the environment while you let workers rip out toxic dust and be a non compulsory trade. If you want a clean province, it starts with the people who clean up the poison. Green energy needs compulsory certified abatement. You can't have one without the other.
