At midnight, Oct. 31, residential electricity consumers will be stuck with a 29% increase in electricity generation costs due to our dependence on high cost nuclear.

To offset this increase on your electricity bill, Premier Ford has raised the taxpayer-financed Ontario Electricity Rebate from 13.1% to 23.5%.

Raising taxes to subsidize electricity prices doesn’t make sense (unless of course you own nuclear or gas companies e.g. OPG, GE Hitachi, Bruce Power, and Enbridge).

Tell Premier Ford to lower our electricity rates AND taxes by investing in low-cost wind and solar power, and cancelling the construction of new high-cost, U.S. nuclear reactors. >>
