Knowing Canada is a mess is too little too late

Brain drain over engine ban in Canada
Canada's future. Pretend it is 2035.
In Canada today (2035), you don't have a future like any other country in the world. When you banned gasoline Canada endured a brain drain that gutted the economy.
Anybody with the ability to fix an engine left the country, since there is zero industry in Canada fixing engines that the government declared obsolete almost a decade ago.
First, there are no parts stores, gas stations, or marine fuel docks. Nobody has any refined oil, as in, gasoline or diesel, for sale.
Boats pile up on the shores derelict reminders of another life, back in 2025. Automobiles pile on driveways and in ditches beside empty highways. The old bastard Prime Minister Guilbeault is correct.
Nobody builds highways in Canada anymore. He made sure of it by passing it into law in 2026.
The rusting cars and moldy boats would be operational with fuel, and mechanics, of which there is none available and therefore affordable to normal Canadians.
Today, in 2035, when you look at a map of the world at night, two places are bathed in darkness in the whole world. Canada, and North Korea. When the wrong people take power bad things happen.
It's not an issue of the inevitable, or destiny, or shit happens.
Humans let down their guard. This is a mistake. Oh, and humans don't learn much from history either. That's how Guilbeault became Prime Minister in 2027.

So, we decided the future is solar
It's solar or bust for the human race.
It's true, when the infrastructure falls into place, and you're at a latitude advantageous for production of solar electricity.
Equally, the invention of batteries, and the evolution of solar energy gathering technology, it may only take minutes a day in cloudy conditions to create the kind of power we use daily in our industrial and domestic lives.
You could probably expect a paint on an automobile to turn both sun and warmth into electrical energy to power the car and store in batteries. Batteries will evolve into something beyond recognition. The whole world could be done over, and will be. Because you're right. The power of the sun makes oil look like a fart in the wind.
It's important to recognize limits on petroleum energy, because it may indeed be a supply that could go on forever, who knows?
The problem is basic. It takes a large concentration of energy simply to distribute petroleum, and if the demand for this form of energy is increasing, the infrastructure also needs to expand, which means the tankers need to be bigger, and sail more frequently, and the storage facilities need to be larger, and the pipelines need to expand, and the gas lines to the houses, and the gas stations for the increasing number of cars, and trucks, and trains.
In short, it becomes ungainly to deliver this form of energy, to be honest, plus, you build it, then, run out of oil. What a mess that's going to be. And you haven't replaced it. Which was supposed to happen in about 1975.
The actual projections for running out of oil stands at 50 years from now. That's also a blink and you're there.

Canadian wood fuel is powering European cities
The wood pellet industry runs on a shoe string, according to Len Fox, General Manager, Premium Pellet, in Vanderhoof, B.C., "It's difficult to make money. Our fibre costs are high and our profit margins are tight." Even so, Premium Pellet is filling orders as usual in Europe, and increasingly more often in North America. The area of operation for Premium Pellet is northern B.C., which puts Premium Pellet in close liaison with First Nations throughout the territory and they work exceptionally closely with Saikuz First Nation.
