Liberals overstay their welcome….by about 10 years!
At the advent of the five (5) by-elections in Ontario and as we close in on the 10th anniversary of the current Liberal’s tenure as the governing party in Ontario it is time to look back on their management of the “Energy” portfolio. It is particularly appropriate to examine their past as the energy issue is bound to be on voter’s minds. Additionally, the current Minister of Energy, Bob Chiarelli, has embarked on what he refers to as a “review” of the Long-Term Energy Plan (LTEP) which was never a “plan”! When the LTEP was released in the fall of 2010 by Energy Minister, Brad Duguid it was to be a “guide” to the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) so that they could produce IPSP II.

Has map and how delayed action bombs work.
Would be a real shame to have little bits of windweasel floating all over the North and Baltic Seas….

“End of Atomic Age Seen as Merkel’s Biggest Headache Now”
The following is what we hear from QP all the time:
“While there won’t be any retroactive changes to the support regime, ‘there’s a lot of talk to move away from subsidized rates, called feed-in tariffs, for new projects ‘to a more market-based system’ to reduce costs, …”

Directions for this flim-flan in Ontario still coming from Europe? Just waited for the German election to be over?
No more free ride for the windweasels…..gee, that’s a shame! Wind is just another energy source, no more favoritism. Well that’s a start!
“10 Years Of Mismanagement” is a fine example of what citizens can do when needed!!!
All work that should have been done by their elected representatives.
Yep! Problem is….if we waited for them to help us, we would be doomed!
