The province's long term energy plan continues to make waves in northwestern Ontario.Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli is deflecting criticism over the high cost of electricity in the North.
Chiarelli was asked yesterday during a call with media if the Province would entertain a separate electricity rate for Northerners since generating electricity in the region is done fairly cheaply.
We face a 33-percent hike in our electricity rates over the next 3-years according to the new plan.
