2035 energy independence plan by BC Conservatives proposes SMRs, reverses natural gas ban, and zero-emission vehicle mandates.

The British Columbia Conservative Party, led by John Rustad, has proposed introducing small modular reactors (SMRs) as part of an energy independence strategy by 2035. The plan involves amending the Clean Energy Act, ensuring seismic safety, and gaining public support. SMRs are smaller, less centralized nuclear reactors. The Conservatives also aim to reverse the BC NDP's plans to ban natural gas for home heating and to roll back zero-emission vehicle sales mandates.
