Anyone knows if Fortis has any plans of replacing the analog natural gas metres with natural gas “smart” metres?

Just received a letter from BC Hydro November 23, 2018 that my analog meter has expired and since they have no analog meters they need to replace it with a smart meter and I can pay to have it not communicate. They are stating that I will be fined if they cannot access my meter. Does anyone know what steps can be taken? Maybe where to purchase an analogue meter with Measurement Canada certification.

Many have received this same letter, its related to the 2020 deadline of BC Hydro to be 100% Smart Meters, even though many will be “Radio Off” they are still focused on their deadline for 2020. People with have taken measurements at various “Radio Off” meters and all of them so far were not emitting any wireless communications. BC Hydro claims they can no longer get Analogs, whether that is true or not is questionable, and likely is part of their agenda to meet their deadline. Please read more here http://emrabc.ca/?p=14514
