More emphasis on conservation measures and energy efficiency improvement must be the first step to help lowering electricity costs!

As for generation sources there can't be no other choice than cheap, renewable hydro-electric to replace nuclear power as base-load generation (should import from Quebec on long-term contracts !), embedded roof-top solar (on large industrial, commercial, institutional buildings and residential roof-tops !) and off-shore wind farms (like Michigan and Wisconsin).

Better incentives and supportive policies will attract much needed foreign investment that will create many thousands of well-paying jobs across the province !!

Let's be clear: These renewable electricity generating sources do not require the import of fuel to boil water to make steam to drive turbines and generators in a very inefficient way like all conventional modes, they do not pollute, they do not leave hazardous radioactive waste (with no solution to maintain it safely!), and components can safely be recycled after end-of-life term.

Quit wasting hundreds of Billions of our hard-earned taxes on trying to refurbish those worn-out nuclear reactors, who would continue to churn out that deadly waste!

A small portion of this misdirected taxpayer investment would get our provincequickly on the right path to a 100% renewable, safe and sustainable energy future 1

This must be the first and only choice for the long-term energy supply planning for Ontario.
