Thank you for taking the time to send your email regarding the cost of hydro. I value your input, and your concerns are important to me.

Over the past decade, Ontario electricity consumers have helped cover the costs associated with removing dirty coal-fired generation from our electricity system. While the move to cleaner energy has saved more than $4 billion a year in health and other costs associated with smog and pollution from coal, we recognize that the result has been increased costs.

My colleagues in the Ontario government and I have listened to and have heard your concerns. We understand that electricity costs have stretched family budgets.

That is why we introduced legislation that would save families, farms and small businesses eight per cent on their electricity bills. This results in an average savings of about $130 annually or $11 each month. Rural consumers would receive an additional benefit from decreased rural delivery charges. Combined with the eight per cent rebate, eligible rural customers would save $540 a year or $45 each month. And we are proposing to expand the Industrial Conservation Initiative, empowering businesses to shift their consumption away from peak periods and save money.

In addition, we announced on September 27 that our government will suspend large renewable energy procurement, which will save electricity consumers an average of approximately $2.45 per month on their electricity bills.

These measures build on our ongoing commitment to reduce energy bills while maintaining reliability for all consumers. And while we see these as important steps, we recognize there is more we need to look at. Ensuring a clean, reliable and affordable supply of electricity for Ontario families, farms and businesses remains a core responsibility for our government - and a key way to build Ontario up.

Thanks once again for raising this issue with me. Please accept my best wishes.


Kathleen Wynne
Premier of Ontario

lol.
So even at their most generous, they are so concerned about the stretched budgets for families, they are going return $58.45/month.
Which might be a tank of gas for a small car after Carbon Taxes, or enough food for a family of 4 to cook dinner once.

Homophobe.

Odd.... that 4 billion she "stated" in health savings isn't reflected in the health care costs, in fact those are up over the same period she references .

She's twisted.

Exactly! That's not odd. She's simply full of crap! If that were true,where the hell as all that money?

Lol. Ya if they saved 4b. Then hydro should be free.

The only good thing about her is that she doesn't plan on breeding anytime soon so we will all be spared from horse faced offspring, thats something positive at least. 11 dollars a month is chump change you can collect pop cans at the road for more money.

I cannot see the savings, delivery rate is the same as our hydro use and the 8% i can not find out what it is calculated on certainly not the price of the hydro.Perhaps if everyone paid the same delivery cost we might see a saving.

14 million pop. uses 83+billion of the combined healthcare cost, 228 billion.

Maybe they use the carbon tax revenue to offset hydro costs.

Last time I looked closely 2014, the cost in Ontario of elect. went from 6.5 cents per kwh in 2003, and rose steadily under liberals to 12.7cents per kwh in 2014. Those costs include 1.5c/kwh delivery and .7c/kwh in the 6.5c/kwh cost, debt retirement charge, prov. tax 8% and regulatory charges are included in the 12.7c/kwh

The liberal mental midgets allowed the Green Energy Act Alliance(a corporate industry lobby group disguised as an activist group) with a business plan of global warming to dupe the liberal dumbazzes into funding their business plan.

The hydo system has been a much bigger mess in most everyway since 2003 under the liberals.
