Why not just use electric stove/heater/whatever? That way you're using something that's both cleaner, safer, and make more sense to nationalise if it haven't.

electricity is comically expensive compared to gas for heating, I understand that some places don't consistently get to -40 every winter, but many places do.

-40 sounds insane. There are very few major cities with such cold temperatures. Outside of such extreme locations, heat pumps are very competitive to gas heating if not simply cheaper.

Welcome to VT. We have heat pumps but also backup heating sources.
