1. A link to a speech on the proposal to turn Newfoundland and Labrador into a private sector energy corporation. Note the list of specific goals established by cabinet. Note that cabinet could use those goals to measure any proposal against but – more to the point – note that every Newfoundlanders and Labradorians could use the same list to measure the proposal.
Now let me compare that to my energy mega-corporation checklist from 2005.
or was it 2007?
Ummm.
Errr.
Just a sec.
Must be here somewhere.
Anyway, while the hunt continues…
2. Try this link from last February to a proposal to privatize Hydro-Quebec. Talk about inefficient! But even that inefficiency is nothing compared to the mess known as NB Power.
Meanwhile, wait for any of the hysterical anti-sale opponents to give even the vaguest clue as to how NB residents could get lower power rates and pay down the NB Power debt without getting rid of the debt pig company as a Crown corporation?
