Pertinent, perhaps, but the article doesn't make any sense. "We need to
raise prices because you're using less, but if you use more, we'll have
to raise prices even more." It would make more sense if they simply
said something like "we need to raise prices to repair/replace aging
infrastructure." Isn't that what they're really saying? Conservation
is simply delaying it a little.

If Saskpower had any brains and less political interference from Mr.
Prebble (who still owes me $20 -- no I don't want to collect it, I want
to hold it over his head forever) they would build a nuclear reactor at
La Loche, and string some lines over to Fort Mc. I've been saying that
for years, and it seems recently that a former SK NDP, who now works for
a large oil firm in AB agrees.
