If you list all the Ontario stupidities there will be no room for anyone else's.
Personally I have found it hilarious how Ernie Eves (the premier of Ontario, you non-Canadians won't have heard of him, he has never been elected and will be one of those non-entities who disappears as soon as he loses the election he is so reluctant to call) has discovered the concept of energy conservation in the past 72 hours.
And has a great plan for implementing it too: scolding everybody.
They have no way of knowing where power draws are coming from! (John Baird admitted this on the radio yesterday). If the system is getting close to overload, they don't know if it's from industrial or residential use or streetlights or what! They don't know.
In a way that's good. If this government could, it would "solve" the energy problem by cutting off power to all welfare recipients and single parents. Wouldn't fix the grid but it would make the Regressive Preservatives feel good.
The only energy-sucker I own is a dryer. I'm going to run it at 4 p.m. every day just out of spite.
