There’s No Place Like This

Mr. McGuinty announced his latest project today: 7 billion dollars goes to South Korea, for which a consortium led by Samsung will build and set up wind and solar farms across Ontario. The government has guaranteed them to pay above-market prices for green power. For all this, they’ll create 15,000 jobs.

So, to recap, we’re paying Samsung to build unproven wind and solar farms, and we’ll be buying over-priced power from them after. In addition, we paid nearly half a million dollars for each job created.

How does this help us?

I suppose the commercial is right: there is no place like McGuinty’s Ontario…
