Just got an email from BC Hydro for a limited time offering of $100 credit for a possible "Energy Reduction Challenge before Jan.31."
BC Hydro is saying that if I reduce my electric consumption by 10% in the next 12 months they will credit my account $100.
I have already upgraded all of my appliances to 'Energy Star' ratings and my lighting has all been switched to LED. My electrical consumption has gone down by at least 10% a long time ago with no help from the BC government or BC Hydro.
I have cut my electrical consumption while my gas bill is increasing and is set to skyrocket with an ever-increasing carbon tax. Currently, the carbon tax on my gas bill is 95 cents for every dollar of natural gas my house uses. Add the GST and the carbon tax is one dollar for each dollar for each unit of natural gas it uses.
This carbon tax is set to increase on April Fool’s Day 2024. I am tired of the jokers in Victoria giving me April Fool’s Day tax increases.
I will buy some electric heaters and my BC Hydro bill will skyrocket.
The NDP in Victoria and their Crown agent BC Hydro are a bunch of jokers out of reality.
If they wanted to be fair, all BC Hydro customers would get $100 rebates.
