🏠 Big home fixes beat small ones

Small tweaks and energy advice did little, if anything, for people in energy poverty. Structural home improvements did bring warmer rooms and better health. Insulation beats leaflets.

Central planning doesn't stop climate change; it creates energy poverty. Canadians need market innovation and lower bills.

A vintage postcard-style promotional graphic in deep navy blue and mustard yellow featuring Derek Elliott, Leader of the Libertarian Party of Canada. On the right, a stylized halftone illustration shows Derek Elliott wearing a bright yellow suit, dark navy shirt, tie, and glasses. At the top left, the yellow Libertarian Party of Canada logo is displayed on a navy banner. Below it, silhouetted power transmission towers, wind turbines, and industrial buildings stand against a sunburst background. On the bottom left, white quote text reads: 'When central planners dictate which fuels we can use and set hard limits on economic output, they do not stop climate change. They create energy poverty.' attributed to Derek Elliott, Leader of the Libertarian Party of Canada.

If you have no time because you always work. If they have outsourced costs onto you. If you are always physically worn out. If your body suffers from the graft and the grind. If you have to break your back to earn your day of leasure....then you are being vampired by someone.

Energy poverty isn't just about high bills. It means not being able to heat your home, access renewable options or benefit from digital energy tools. Across the EU, millions face this reality. #FITTEREU is mapping who and why.
