Another peek over the border
The local nationalists often like, when it is convenient, to compare their project of Glorious National Liberation Through Jingoism, Statism, And Autarky to Quebec.
Hello, Quebec. From the Montreal Gazoo:
Hydro asks for more wind powerIn Dannystan, Ed Martin owns the wind.
KEVIN DOUGHERTY, The Gazette
Published: Wednesday, May 14
Hydro-Québec is asking municipalities and First Nations communities to submit bids to provide the utility with an additional 500 megawatts of wind energy.
Natural Resources Minister Claude Béchard announced yesterday the utility will allot 250 megawatts each to Quebec municipalities and aboriginal communities for a number of projects, and will buy the electricity for between 9.5 and 11.3 cents a kilowatt-hour.
...
The minister said the higher price means the government wants to maximize the impact of the wind projects on the aboriginal and non-aboriginal communities participating.
Not doing anything with it.
Letting it — what's the phrase, again? — lie fallow.
So, how's that statism working out, anyway?
