The MPP for Kenora-Rainy River says a harmonized sales tax mixed with a planned rate increase at Hydro One will have a crippling effect on fixed and low income families across the North.
Howard Hampton says the Provincial Government is headed down the wrong path.
Hydro One is asking the Ontario Energy Board to approve a rate increase of 9.5-percent in 2010 and 13.3-percent in 2011.
