"Some animals are more equal than others" was a rule from the book Animal Farm. Seems it is also the rule for Ontario farms when it comes to the debt retirement charge on Hydro One bills:
On April 23, 2014, the government announced that it is proposing to remove the DRC cost from residential users’ electricity bills after December 31, 2015. This would save a typical residential ratepayer about $70 per year. The DRC is to remain on all other electricity users’ bills until the residual stranded debt is retired — this has been estimated to occur by the end of 2018.
With all the industries closing down and moving out they have to make up the revenue shortfall somehow.
