Ontario to bribe its power-shocked voters
By Terence Corcoran
This cannot be true. News reports say the Ontario government is going to bring in a new Clean Air Benefit, a payment to electricity consumers to help reduce their soaring electricity bills. In an economic statement Thursday, Finance Minister Dwight Duncan is apparently going to announce the Clean Air Benefit as a bold response to the growing realization across the province that Ontario’s electricity sector is a fiscal runaway train.

Subsidy dependent wind energy about to die in PEI

Lights out on PEI’s wind power dream
By Lorne Gunter
There’s a nice bakery near where I live that recently started boasting it had switched to wind energy to power its ovens.

UN backs Ecuador’s grotesque blackmail scheme
The UN is a moral cesspool that needs to be disbanded. The latest example of its corruption is the support from the UN’s Development Program (UNDP) for open blackmail by Ecuador. Of course this blackmail is on behalf of today’s most popular satanic god, Gaia, so many people think it’s acceptable. Christian morality – the ethical system that condemns blackmail – isn’t necessarily valid for other worldviews, especially evil cults and ideologies.

Are you frying your eggs at 4 a.m. yet?
By Lawrence Solomon
… No, Mr. McGuinty is in this to transform the province’s power system to make it coal free and reliant on nuclear and wind power. Money is no obstacle to him but Ontario citizens and businesses are, because they don’t behave as he’d like them to – and as his technologies of choice need them to behave.
