Mr. Dane has mapped out Electrical marketing in detail for all to understand. The Conservatives are misrepresenting at every level! This is a excerpt from Mr. Dane’s 5 worthy pages. The full document is available upon request to me or Mr. Dane. Power prices in the range of .16 is on par with third world contries!

I have retained copies of the Business Section of the Edmonton Journal for several months and will list for you the prices that the Edmonton Journal quoted on specific dates. Unfortunately, I did not record the weather data. The 30-day average and the average price of electric energy are for the previous day.

Mr. Hancock, by any standard an average price of electric energy for a day of 16.5 cents per kilowatt-hour is extremely high and an average over 30 days of more than 6.0 cents per kilowatt-hour is also excessive. It is not logical to say that electric energy costs are decreasing when you see these figures and I must conclude that you are rationalizing when you say that the contrary is the case.

Premier in is fond of making ridiculous analogies!
