Edmonton City Council is debating whether to make developers pre-wire all new homes for solar panels and electrical vehicle ( EV ) chargers.

The province is also changing the building code to ensure new homes are handicap-accessible, but it too can add thousands of dollars to a new home’s price.

The Liberals are spending billions on the accelerator in an effort to drive down home prices.
