Could have a been quite a wild ride with that crack addict!

Yeah, Ontario is about 40% of Canada’s economy and it’s population, and also produces an absolute shitload of energy via hydro and nuclear that gets exported to the US. Given that DoFO is the premier of Ontario, and thus “in charge” of 40% of Canada, it’s something to take a little seriously even if he’s a complete moron.

Also, keep in mind that the US gets a fantastic deal on this energy because we tend to overproduce and it has to go somewhere or else we would be forced to spin down a bunch of baseload nuclear, which would cost a fortune to bring back online. There has been times where we’ve ‘sold’ it at a negative cost because it would be more expensive to produce less.
