Then at least make sure we all pay equally; none of this subsidizing some people's energy bills and not others'. I don't mind them raising my electricity bill as long as they raise everyone's. But if they insist on lowering some people's, then I expect them to lower mine too.

Also, to invest electricity fees into reneywable resources would be reasonable too if that is what's needed.
MB has the heaviest subsidized energy in Canada.

It's not equal at all. MB residents are subsidizing MN and ND residents. 6.5 cents per Kwh in ND and 6.77 cents per Kw/h in MB.

Nice huh?

Brilliant!

The frustration is not with paying our fair share, but with some being more equal than others it would seem.

Could be a method to the madness. How many N.D. residents flock to Pennywig and unload a sh*tload of money? :lol:
