Did some reading on why Ontario's hydro rates are so high and there seems to be numerous reasons. Pricey Green energy was mentioned as one of them. I suggest you read the article as well as it did give all reason as to why Ontario's hydro is so high. That being said , I live and farm in Manitoba and our power comes from renewable energy and is amongst the cheapest in Canada. That is what I was commenting on and it is a renewable and that should be taken in to account!

Also notice the 2 most expensive cities are in Ontario. 14 years of Liberal mismanagement and the push for wind and solar and shuttering coal have blown their power bills out of the water. Funny you didn't comment on that!
Manitoba Hydro's hydroelectric supply or a nuclear power plant doesn't require a backup source so I would classify that as reliable for sure. Unfortunately the environmentalists are now opposed to both of these options......as well as natural gas.
So that leaves us with solar or wind which are both unreliable and expensive......that puts us in the most expensive category.
Can someone from Ontario comment on if they are happy with their wind power supply and if their bills have increased?
