This is a good report but the message itself is pure LUNACY — in fact, the Ontario Clean Energy Alliance is a very small organization that largely misrepresents facts.

It has been proven and demonstrated that in Ontario, wind and solar power are much more costly and unreliable than other forms of power generation.

Many people in Ontario would like us to return to low-cost power by implementing proven solutions to the problem of high-cost energy.

I am certainly not impressed with alliance chair Jack Gibbons' case!
