When was the last Long Term Energy Plan (LTEP)?

If it was three years ago why can’t the government prepare the new one in time? (i.e. who dropped the ball that it can’t make 2021; the government, the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) or the Ontario Energy Board (OEB)? It must one of these.

The Feb 2021 deadline is 6 months away. The three parties have had 2.5 years to prepare the LTEP, if one was done three years ago. If the government can turn a response to COVID is less than three months, why can’t it get a new LTEP from the other two participants in three years?

By extending consultations the proposal sounds like an excuse to NOT plan, rather than a way of actually planning. Ontarians would want to see leadership on energy supply issues as much as they want economic planning, which presumably also depends on the right kind of energy supplies.

Please keep the planning on-track and don't revoke the regulation.
