Cottagers Face Disastrous Rise In Hydro Costs


Recommended Posts

  • Platinum Contributing Member

Apparently this may force some out of their cottages in Ontario as costs to deliver hydro may  rise 129% for some.

What say you Canadians?

 A little racism is a great way to start a day pouts! 

No one cares about Canada so great idea! Maybe start a biz you're so hot with fresh ideas!

Nice CBC article.

The biggest challenge facing cottagers is transfer of ownership to kids.:justsaying:

Thank you for your response...just curious if this is an issue people are concerned with.

Electricity costs in general are high.

For seasonal cottagers we pay twice the delivery rates as full time residence.  Some will pay more, some will pay less when this gets implemented.

'seasonal' in Ontario is pretty much 4 or 5 months for most. So a $300 increase for someone who has a second property on a lake is the textbook definition of a first world problem.

Well that’s what I was kind of thinking...the percentage in the headline is deceiving considering the actual dollar amounts.

Hydro rates have been a real mess under the Liberals and Kathleen Wynne and are a big reason why the liberals and her are no longer in power. It all started with her predecessor, Dalton McGuinty and their green energy boondoggle. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-hydro-fraser-institute-study-1.4212668

Lol!!! Agreed!  “Hydro”.  That always makes me smile.  Is Canada a terrible Kevin Costner movie from the 90’s?
