Re: Not enough electricity demand? Increase prices!

Bunch of dendrophiliacs.

They don't want trees to be cut to make way for the tramission grids, yet the result is those south of the border will be using more electricity produced by burning fuel (whichever fuel). The electricity from QC is all hydroelectric.

Note that Hydro-Quebec has been skeptical of the project and reluctant to spend the $500 million for their part of the project.

Attached is Hydro-Quebec's transmission network map.

Take a free tour! "Stupefaction guaranteed!"

Note that the access road is 400 miles long, there are no towns along the way, and there's only one gas station. (And to get to the access road, it's 500 miles from Montreal. So you're talking about an 1800 mile round-trip for the free tour.)
