Its a “grid” right? These people just shift suppliers and tap into the grid. Canada on the other hand can’t use its electricity not sold and the entire loss goes to their bottom line.
We learned that in high school: A protest against the school was that a big chunk of 3600 kids secretly brought their lunch. And we all stood by as the lunchroom people dumped 1000 meals in the dumpster. The school got the point and did not ignore us the next time.
PS, the protest was about sending our friend Bobo home for wearing a wife beater T shirt when the girls were allowed to wear pretty much the same thing.
Very well done:)
That is what I am thinking - there are no other customers for Canada. If they raise the price then those border states will buy electricity elsewhere, leaving them with high tariffs and no exports... which means no revenue.
This may inadvertently expose the folly in New York closing nuclear power plants and replacing it with imported electricity. While there is currently a project to bring in hydro from Quebec to NY (Champlaign-Hudson Power Express), I would imagine some NY electricity is exported from Ontario.
