VICTORIA - The B.C. Liberal government is forging ahead with plans to subsidize the private power industry at the expense of all British Columbians with the awarding of contracts worth untold millions of dollars, says Opposition energy critic John Horgan.
"Under the direction of the B.C. Liberal government, B.C. Hydro has announced a commitment today to buy thousands of gigawatt-hours of electricity we may not even need, with more on the way," said Horgan.
