I did some math and at current rates it would cost
13.5 times more to heat with electricity vs. natural gas. Electrical bills are already a huge burden for many in the province. Add heating onto that and many people won't be able to afford electricity at all. On top of that electricty rates would undoubtedly skyrocket further because of soaring demand.
This will also spell the end of industry in the province.
And yet misguided do-gooders like ********** think this is "cool", "awesome" and "a good thing".
