Since you mention Canada, I’d just like to let you know that in Québec (2nd-most populous province), more than 90% of homes are all-electric. I’ve never even lived in a house that had a gas connection, and in all my relatives I only know of one who does. And yes, that means we use electricity for heat in our -30°C winters.
It’s at the point where if somebody wants a gas range, they have to install a tank outside their home, because the gas network just isn’t there. It’s much cheaper to cook electric (and almost everybody does). The only common use for gas is for barbecues, and that’s almost always using 20-lbs propane tanks.
