In fact I haven't heard any plans from the government on if they're even looking into implementing storage methods. At this point they're just happy to continue increasing our rates to pay for their broken system.

Exactly.
And still I see convoys of flatbed trucks hauling wind turbine tower segments outta Port Weller where they're being mass-produced. They've built a massive production facility along the Welland Canal near Lock 1. And the turbines are blocking out the sky just to the immediate west of us along Lake Erie. Too many to count.
