Obviously, nuclear is the next generation of electrical power.
However, Alberta is extremely rural. Even assuming that it can generate enough electricity for "heat pumps", there is always a high chance of transmission line damage which takes hours or days to fix.
Many people need individual energy storage solutions, for which batteries/electric are garbage conpared to propane, diesel, natural gas, or even wood stoves.
Yes, and no.

Alberta needs to go small modular nuclear.
good point.
Alberta, while having great rivers, is also landlocked.
The old nuclear plants back east are built on the shores of the Great Lakes, I'm assuming for a purpose.
