The beauty of Canada, cheap hydroelectric power.

Here electricity is a little under 7 cents (canadian)/kWh... heh that's what? 4.75 cents US

Power is dirt cheap here.
Yes that's true, but your taxes are much higher than ours. GST, PST, VAT, etc. You also pay almost double what we do for gasoline.

Power is dirt cheap here. I have 5 additional case fans in my system (overclocked athlon 1ghz) and it still costs me almost nothing to run it 24/7. (I run a web server all the time)
