If you, yes, YOU! want to have electricity available whenever you want any, then you must approve of sufficient electricity generating stations to be built that will replace the current aging ones as soon as possible.

Too bad your friend Dalton was allowed to take down the Lakeview plant before newer retrofits were done

Thanks for the Agenda's agenda coming up. I'll have a look/listen to it.
..... I am reminded of the end of the 1980s, yes that long ago, when Ontario Hydro published for free distribution a 4-volume study with lots of information on what will be needed during the next 35(?) years. Apparently nothing was done about the recommendations.

Apparently the Mayor for this area was there too back then & did the same as some here don't think history important

That there is excess electricity generating capacity right now is irrelevant, because of the long time delay before the needed power generating stations will actually get on line. Once the economy is back to near-normal then the electricity need will again keep increasing, while existing electric power generating stations will stop working because of old age. There must ALWAYS be more available capacity, including at peak usage times, than is being used.

That summer power outage on August 14th originated/was caused by a problem in the USA (Ohio?), but because we are interconnected with their electricity grid we too suffered.
