Ontario offers hydro rebate for low-income earners, others to see bill rise
Along with bi yearly rate increases for the next four years destined to drive out remaining Ontario manufacturers what else has Wynne in store for rate payers?.
“What I believe, first of all, is that it’s going to be much more than $0.70. I mean, I think people have to brace themselves for serious increases in their hydro rates,” NDP Leader Andrea Horwath said.
The combination of expected increases, the removal of the clean energy benefit, and a possible privatization of utilities will lead to significantly higher costs.
“Even low income people are not going to see a benefit from this announcement,” she said. “They may see a slight difference in terms of the amount of increase their bills are going to have, but they’re not going to have an overall net decrease.”
