Oh yeah, and we tax the IPP's at say 50%, which goes to remove and replace the dumb meters and then to general revenues. kootcoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11344208424209840730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-5595000456175698862013-02-11T10:14:14.233-08:002013-02-11T10:14:14.233-08:00It used to be that the idea of BC Hydro was to ben...It used to be that the idea of BC Hydro was to benefit the people of BC with low-cost power.<br /><br />Now, with BC Hydro owing $54 billion to IPPs, for power it apparently doesn't need, who's getting the benefit?<br /><br />The 2010 BC Clean Energy Act forces BC Hydro to have a surplus of power, even under low water conditions. This benefits the IPPs.<br /><br />Obviously the CE Act was written by IPP lobbyists.

According to May, these discussions included discussion of a possible Senate appointment for May.[57] However, the coalition ultimately fell apart. After Prime Minister Stephen Harper prorogued Parliament to avoid a non-confidence vote, Liberal leader Dion resigned and was replaced by Michael Ignatieff. When Parliament finally resumed in January, 2009, the Liberal Party decided to support the Conservative government's new proposed budget. While Parliament was prorogued, Harper also announced his intention to fill all current and upcoming Senate vacancies with Conservative appointees.'<br /><br />You see? The lowest common denominator also plays to their own tune. Even the holy Elizabeth May was looking to reward her beliefs over that of the common good. So disgusting, I do not know where to begin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-76592883901372238442013-02-10T18:32:47.990-08:002013-02-10T18:32:47.990-08:00Not sure my other comment made it...but thank you ...Not sure my other comment made it...but thank you for the reminder<br />of the loss of my folks and that it brought tears rolling/spilling.<br />Thank you again.<br />Keep the truth coming....we need you!<br /><br />Beverly<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-74783875559122644152013-02-10T18:23:29.467-08:002013-02-10T18:23:29.467-08:00Grant///my beloved best Blogger of truth....you ma...Grant///my beloved best Blogger of truth....you made my tears roll as you reminded me of the loss of my own dear parents and I thank you for that...plus I truly hope that is true....no Embridge pipeline through our most beautiful province.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-91319038561166788022013-02-10T09:38:56.685-08:002013-02-10T09:38:56.685-08:00Winning elections by the robo-call cheat, has now ...Winning elections by the robo-call cheat, has now spread into Saskatchewan Conservatives. Cheating to win in Canada, is now permissible. The rot of corruption started at the top of the food chain. We now have that poison spreading, into every nook and cranny of Canada. Brazeau isn't the only degenerate Harper has had, working for him<br /><br />Gordon Campbell twice lied and cheated to win his elections too. He gave BC resources and resource jobs to China, long back. Every Dictator needs the unsavory, to do their dirty work for them. Campbell was rewarded by Harper, for his dirty work.<br /><br />Harper's Omnibull-S-Bill gives China the right to sue in BC, to take the mining jobs. Christy fully supports Harper on this. She supports the 200 Chinese miners already here. Christy took the 300 BC miners applicants and, threw them into her hell fires of BC. <br /><br />Chinese resource workers earn, $800 per month. There are nine mines and mine expansions going into Northern BC. Just who will get those jobs? <br /><br />The Chinese at the tar sands, earn a pittance. Harper has permitted all company's, to hire that cheap, slave labor.<br /><br />Harper too claimed to be a devout Christian. He was Policy Chief for his, Northern Foundation Party of 1989. He was linked with Christian Fundamentalist and other links. Perhaps Christy belongs to that same, Christian religion and party?<br /><br />In Canada....The dirtier the politician, the bigger the reward.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-70426462815396054422013-02-10T07:05:21.228-08:002013-02-10T07:05:21.228-08:00What a great post Grant.
