Would we stll be eligible or has that "boat sailed" ? The old windows were original to the home about 30 years old. I still have the receipt for the new windows.

The government website with information on the program says that you can get up $50,000 in grants, but it depends on what improvements are made to the building (which can include installing new windows). Here's my advice: (1) Call 1-877-360-5500 to speak with someone, and get the application forms. (2) Check out the <a href="http://oee.nrcan.gc.ca/commercial/financial-assistance/existing/implementation.cfm?attr=20" rel="nofollow">Retrofit for Buildings Incentive </a>website for information on the program. Hope this helps. Mark Editor, ShowMeTheGreen.ca Hi Jessica -
