But I don't think this will be enough. We need to add plan "B" to this plan "A". And plan "B" is this, in early April (or as soon as we no longer need our furnaces) or air conditioners, we all shut down our hydro every Sunday for 6 hours from noon to 6 pm. Why on a Sunday? Because most manufacturing plants are shut down on Sundays. Why noon to 6 pm? Most people are getting over the winter blues and would rather be out side during these hours (more people will join our fight). And the beauty of this all is that Ontario Hydro won't be able to give or sell the extra hydro to provinces or states near by because they will be experiencing the same temps as us and won't need it. This will force Ontario Hydro to shut systems down. Then it will cause them great grief to turn these systems back up when we all turn our hydro back on at 6 pm. Then, to top it all off, we ask each and every Ontario resident, business owner, manufacturing plants that are not happy with our hydro rates to pay their April Hydro bill with only $10 for that month. The little bit of late payment you will be charged is well worth the fight and they can not shut you down if you are making any sort of an attempt to pay your bill and it sends them a great message on just how many people are in this fight against them because they are not getting it. Beside, they don't chase you for payment unless you've missed 2 payments. The meat in your freezers will be fine for just 6 hours so no need to worry We will do this each and every Sunday until they lower the rates back to what they were and we demand Kathleen Wynn be FIRED!!. I truly believe this will work. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain.If not, I have plan "C". Please share the shit out of this so we can get as much as possible on board..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04776095093154318993noreply@blogger.com
