The NDP urges you to help pull the plug on hydro privatization and deregulation. It's a dirty deal for consumers and the environment. With public oversight, we can have an electrical power system that delivers the goods and keeps prices stable, predictable and reasonable. Our plan doesn't close the door to other players, it just ensures at the end of the day the control over electrical power in Ontario will stay in public hands with reasonable prices and environmental accountability. Saying that electricity is just another commodity is like saying that oxygen is just another gas.
Electricity is essential.
And that's why it should stay in public hands and not be given away to international energy corporations. You will find complete information and an online petition on our website. We have to tell the Conservatives and Liberals that selling off your right to affordable electrical power is not a bright idea. They aren't fighting for you.
