Quite possibly the stupidest thing ever said on GFY.

I know quite a few people who signed up for Ontario's Micro F.I.T Program. They get paid $0.80 per Kwh which is 8 times the market rate for electricity.
The issue with wind is that we can't control when it blows and generally it doesn't happen during peak demand. We end up trying to sell it off to other markets at a loss, so as not to overload the grid.
Quebec has the lowest rates, Ontario is almost at the top. So not sure what you consider stupid about his post.
