WARNING : NOTLEY STEERING TOWARDS ENERGY POVERTY

   Calgary Herald:  On Monday, a room of about 100 members of the Calgary West Rotary club heard alarming information put forward by Todd Beasley, one of the organizers of a group called Albertans for Affordable Electricity.
   Beasley, with a simple power-point presentation, has been lighting small groups on fire across the province by warning them that Rachel Notley’s NDP government is sending us down the road to energy poverty not unlike what’s happened in Ontario — where spiking costs for electricity have led to “heat or eat” predicaments for vulnerable citizens who face the most expensive consumer electricity in North America.
    Beasley says Notley’s benign-sounding Climate Leadership Act must be stopped, otherwise Albertans can expect to see a three-fold increase at best and at worst a seven-to-10 times increase in our monthly power bills.
