Despite a mild winter which saw Ontarians conserve electricity, hydro rates are set to increase next month because we saved too much energy.
Typical socialist propaganda: blame the society.
It happened because the climate change hysteria made the Ontario Liberals to cut off all sources of cheaper electricity, what's why.
It happened because the climate change hysteria made the Ontario Liberals to make us to rely on non-manageable generators of expensive electricity without any ability to store it, what's why.
So you'd rather just offload the costs on to the next generation? Because in fifty years, the costs you pay now will be nothing compared to what local and larger scale economies will have to pay out.
How do you know? And why does it mean I'll have to pay more taxes? How is it doled out? The Chinese economy is larger than of the Ontario's, do they pay same or more taxes on CO2?
Just keep partying like it's 1859. It'll be the best reality ever.
Partying?!
Because of this climate change hysteria my electricity bill more than doubled in just a few years (despite more than thousand dollars upgrades into the "green" appliances etc.) and my heating bills will go up at least 30% on January 1st.
It drives up prices on everything... More and more taxes because of this...
Businesses are leaving Ontario and new not coming despite a competitive Canadian dollar and skillful workers...
The most beautiful parts of the province are littered with windmills that produce expensive electricity when there is no demand, so they sell it to bordering states at no cost
Every time they show me on the news another "proof" of the climate change and how bad that is for Bangladeshis living in plywood sheds a few feet from the shore (yes, I'm talking about VICE), I know it means I'm going to have to pay simply because of taxpayers-salaried folks pushing its own agendas just because they want to feel important.
Why is such a noble and scientifically sound cause became just another way to take wealth from the middle class and waste it with useless government programs?
This is a definitely good practice, and one of the cornerstones of socialism.
However, socialism comes with a price: for every able person who choose not to work, there have to be taxpayers willing to work for that person's welfare.
That means Finland's experiment will be not applicable elsewhere simply because there is no other society like that one somewhere else.
Any socialist who thinks that a good will alone can build a socialist state anywhere should revisit history of socialist countries like USSR and China.
Simple solutions for social inequality work only on paper.
Buy why would an automated car/truck stop to pick up a hitchhiker? That sounds like a liability suit waiting to happen...
Because robots are supposed to help humans in needs...
Also: "A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law."
Useless site.
None of positions I've occupied since I've been on LinkedIn (in 2005?) came from LinkedIn.
All articles I've ever read there were of traditional genres of "mastering the obvious" or stupid motivational tantra.
All direct spam and phishing I received since I've been on LinkedIn came from LinkedIn.
Microsoft once again has been up to its reputation of being managed by dimwits.

Do you understand the difference between correlation and causation? It seems likely the answer is no.
Can you read? It seems likely the answer is no.
Because of this climate change hysteria
LOL, dude, great joke!
It could be much worse if Trudeau Jr would do entertainment shows and Mulroney Jr as prime minister.
Yes, he'll make the weather great again!
That's called "Canadian content"
Don't you dare to assume my TV preferences! LOL
400+ TV channels, Netflix, Amazon Prime etc. and still NOTHING GOOD IS ON

What surprising to me is that somebody still believes that 'don't be evil' motto... Poor naive souls...

We're all cheering for QNX and RIM here in Ottawa, lots of smart folks work there, and they who make great software.
If also they find a cure for cancer we'll never get rid of baby boomers...
What a waste! I don't believe VCs tolerate this kind of ROI...
Ah, that's cool.

Will they properly recognize the "prison area: do not pick up hitchhikers" road signs?

Well, this is how elections work: Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal voted him into the office, how everybody pays for it.
