Boy....that is so fk up.....
If we use more the price will go down.
The fools.
Idiots!
hence the discussion in the idiot thread!
http://www.oodmag.com/community/show...l=1#post974024
The estimate it is it will cost each house $3,000 more per year! Probably looking for a carbon tax excuse to use on natural gas, gotta raise lots of money to build the useless wind turbines and bribe the OPP with another 10% increase.
Can someone please deport this insane woman. Does she even know how much it would cost to heat a house using electricity?!?! We would go broke in 2 months.
Now the sale of Hydro to a private company makes even more sense. She has a plan to increase power consumption big time and her private friends will be hansomely.
Wait....
Get a load of the rest of it!
http://business.financialpost.com/fp...c-suicide-plan
"The leaked cabinet document, reportedly signed-off on by Premier Kathleen Wynne, lists a jaw-dropping 80 or so policies including: The eventual ban on heating new homes and buildings with natural gas, with only electric or geothermal being legal; $4 billion to be doled out by a “green bank,” funded by carbon taxes, to subsidize retrofits of buildings to get them off natural gas; the requirement that homes undergo an “energy-efficiency audit” before they can be sold; and a stack of rules, regulations and handouts to get an electric car into every two-car household within eight years, including rebates, free electric charging, and plug-in stations at every liquor store."
and more.... from the Federal lunatics!

So I walk to the liquor store get in my car and head to work.
I have said it before "The Lunatics Are Running The Asylum "
We are Fooked.

I must admit, this one of the most disturbing announcements yet. I can't help but think there is a surge of panic running through Ontario industry as they try to come to terms with what their costs will be without access to natural gas. If the rising electicity costs weren't sufficient to push more industry out of the province, this should really be great impetus to send the rest looking for 'not so green pastures'!
If I were a company CEO I would be directing my team to begin an exit strategy. The economic environment is now simply too unstable. How can industry plan when at every turn there is yet another zealous and idealogical economic suicide scheme to cast us all into the dark ages?
Interestingly enough, the unions are quiet. Well no, that is to be expected. They are the in large part responsible to electing this government. I wonder how happy they are now as their elected union-friendly Liberals are putting a knife to the heart of industry. This government has to go, the sooner the better.
If you ever wondered if she had a self serving secret agenda there ya go. She is selling off Hydro to her supporters and now is creating a situation where the sales will grow by legislation. As demand grows ( forced in this case) so will prices. Pretty basic economics. With likely years of cheap oil prices and astronomically rising electricity costs she thinks electric cars are the way to go. I wonder how much campaign contributions and kickbacks are involved here? It truly is a non stop almost weekly process of incompetence and corruption. Wait until your pay cheque gets docked 2% for the pension scam and then the carbon taxes cause another 5% inflation. Disposable income won't keep up with power costs. It's almost like she's on a mission to destroy the Province?
This is not new though. The libranos have legislated policing laws whereby towns almost have to use the OPP. She also gives them crazy increases and in turn gets their support and they drag their feet on the multiple criminal investigations against her. She is completely out of control and I for the life of me can't understand how this government is in power?
Let the protest begin.
Majority government. Save your energy and money for the next election unless she and Trudough figure out a way to just not have those anymore :ninja:Quote:

I'm treating this "plan" of Wynne's like it's abolute gospel.
I thought there was no way the gun registry would pass - it did.
I thought there was no way Wynne could get reelected with a majority - she did.
I thought there was no way Wynne could get away with all the corruption and crimes - she has.
I thought there was no way Trudeau could get elected with a majority - he did.
This s#*t show is only just beginning. If you're at a point in life you can pull up stakes, sell everything and get the F*#k out of Ontario, DO IT!
Unfortunately, I won't reach that point in time....
She will find another way, look at how hard it is to have your own chicken in Ontario? You better be zoned right and they can just change zoning under you.Quote:

Another thing to know, the off grid does not work in many municipalities due to wired smoke alarm laws, without them you cannot have occupancy and many do not recognize solar as a viable electricity source, so in the end you have to stay on the grid and pay over $100 a month to be connected to something you do not use at all.
Oh, I know all that Fox. But there are still tons of ways to implement viable systems that'd cut your hydro draw to near-nil that are perfectly legal and don't affect building code or bylaws.
SSSssshhhhh! If she finds out people are doing that she will impose a minimum surtax. I mean they preached conservation and when consumption dropped they raised the rates because revenue dropped. They will hunt you down and find you and squeeze the money out of you. They will call it something green or Eco this or that but you will have to cough up in the end. Resistance is futile.Quote:

Every decision the Liberals make seems to contrary to common sense and building a strong province. The most upsetting part is that people still support them.
Guaranteed ! A buddy up north heats with electric furnace, he keeps the house in the low 40,s all winter as they are down south. Hydro bills are still 7-900 a month...I can't imagine what they would be if he kept the house at 68....Quote:

Wynne is looking at charging people who are off the grid, who have transmission lines on road side of property "delivery to you charges" because they have to maintain hydro infrastructure. Don't believe me, cottage users who are getting zero use bills with distribution charges added.
The way forward is to buy a property with no transmission line in an unincorporated township it seems
But that will go the way of water/septic charging proposed by City of Ottawa
When does government intrusion end, where did our freedom of choice and rights go.
I truly fear for my kids future.
More on this idiocy from the financial post

Good article.
Paying for future potential use? I can believe this - though I'd like to see proof.Quote:

The proof is cottage people who getting bills for zero, but still getting delivery to charges. When brought up by Patrick Brown (C), it became a liberal topic of "why are we not doing this"Quote:
