I'm disgusted to learn we are getting 1/3 of our power from gas. Fuck Doug Ford and all the anti-environmentalist cunts he employs.
Yup.

It hasn't done a very good job at keeping the costs down... Can we kick him out for false advertising?
I agree fuck Ford, but also check the stats at various times throughout the day. Many gas plants only go on during the day to meet peak demand, and are shutoff in the evening and night. The makeup is much different offpeak.
Fair enough, although quite frankly, we should not be burning any gas. If we had upgraded and expanded our nuclear plants like many groups told us for many, many years, we wouldn't have this problem
