BF>> Aren't you then stuck with only oil for heating it?

 SH> Nope.  Our home in Saskatoon had a forced air natural gas furnace and many
 SH> people here heat with propane whole some even heat with electricity.

It is a risk to have that amout of natural gas or propane at home.
Have you had any accidents with it?

 SH> How much do you pay for electricity?

In Swedish with tax and all 0,73 SEK and that will be about 9 cent USD for
1 kWh that is 1 000 W per hour.

 BF>> Isn't this a problem for you, not to have the same regulation in all the
 BF>> country?

 SH> Not for me because I don't drive outside the Yukon all that much.  I also
 SH> don't use studded tires.

I mean in general. It's like for us to go to Germany, we have to check what's legal
or not.

 SH>> How does 4000 litres translate into 4 m3?

 SH> Thanks for that.

My pleasure.

 BF>>  I think we are far ahead the rest of the world in environment
 BF>> protection, for better or for worse.

 SH> I'm happy that we are not on the bleeding edge.:-)

As I said, for better or for worse but sometimes it goes out of hand I guess.
