Yes, that's the one.
The Liberals still retain some right wing measures and selling off Hydro One is certainly an example of that.
No, it's not. When the PCs announced the idea of selling off Hydro One, the Libtards howled in outrage over it. Various experts said it was a terrible idea and so the PCs dropped the idea. Yet in spite of all that, the LPO already had their
own plan to sell off Hydro One if and when they got elected.
Just another example of how duplicitous the LPO actually is. And it's quite the convoluted plan. Waste a bunch of money on useless windmills, artificially crank up the hydro rates to make it more profitable and then sell it off, all so Toronto can get some new buses.
Sadly, the first two share offerings will recoup only the cost of the gas plant scandal ($1 billion) and that drug riddled, third rate athletic competition called the Pan-Am games ($2.5 billion) That $3.5 billion could have gone a long way towards the plan for Toronto's transit without screwing the taxpayer.
And let's not forget that the $3/mo increase is only the first increase of the year. There was an increase in rates in the last quarter of last year and there'll be another increase in the last quarter this year.
Ontario has definitely proven one thing though, conserving on hydro use actually leads to more expensive hydro rates. So why are we conserving? According to the latest govt bullsh*t ad, ever since the last coal fired plant was shut down, the OPG's power supply is 99.7% emissions free. If our supply is now based on wind, hydroelectric and nuclear, then there's really no need to conserve on hydro use since wind blows freely (when it's blowing) and water flows freely, and nuclear produces huge amounts of power.
Of course it doesn't matter now. The rates are up there and that's where they're going to stay. All because the idiots in this province keep electing incompetent tits to run the circus.
