[Rant] Ontario Hydro-you used less energy so you have to pay more. Huh?

[Shwa Girl]

well
surprise, surprise
Kathleen Wynne announced today that she knows she will not be in power after this Thursday
maybe my rant will be an unrant, really soon

[Shwa Girl]

nice that the ON election is over
nice that Wynne DID NOT win

hope, this time next year, we have half decent hydro rates

whew, what a difference a day makes eh?

I was looking at the Ontario Energy Board site for electricity rates and they are in effect until April 2019.

Time of Use versus Tiered rates:
https://www.oeb.ca/newsroom/2018/ele...starting-may-1

I wished the electricity rates would align with the changes from Standard Time to Daylight Savings Times. It's a boggle trying to remember all the rules of when something starts or stops and that something is not on the same timeline as another time related thing.

Hey, we should get the DST boot put on a separate ballot for the next Ontario election. I'm over the DST clock change.

just found out from my hydro bill -that mid-peak time of use went down may1/18 from 9.5 to 9.4 % (found this out from calling and inquiring about "time of use" line on my bill )

Had a two minute power outage this morning and I have no idea what caused it. When the utility called back (about 10minutes after I talked to a rep), she spoke to Mom who confirmed we had power. But Mom did not ask for the cause of the outage.
