Miwame character and Fine Quality at a truly modest Price. The tact is that Power bilk must increase and it is Likely they a Fol continue to do so for some time into the future. But there Are valid reasons for the increases. One of the reasons for increased electrical Bills is that we re using More electricity than Ever before. For example average Canadian household consumption increased by More than 65% in just 10 years. And in addition the number of households has also in creased. With this increased consumption of electricity there must be an enlarged building program. Because consumption of electricity More than Dou Bles every 10 years utilities Are forced to increase their and distributing capacity every 10 years. What this Means is that even without inflation Unity More Man doubles every 10 years just on capital programs. For the same reason operating costs also increase. And with inflation of course the situation worsens. And there s a third reason your Utility s revenues come from the Price you pay for electricity. However Utility revenues do not provide enough Sooney for expansion because they lag behind growth. In the interim utilities have no alternative Bat to borrow against future revenues in order to the increased demand for their services. Then there s the effect of inflation on interest rates. With inflation utilities Are forced to borrow at High interest rates which remain in effect for the duration of the loan usually Twenty years. The result of All this is of course higher electric rates for most canadians. Increased consumption increased building increased borrowing and soaring operating and fuel costs mean the end of Low priced electrical rates that most canadians have enjoyed. But despite the increases in Canadian electrical rates they Are still among the Best in the world and though rates must of necessity continue to Rise. Canada s electrical utilities will do their Best to minimize rate increases without jeopardizing the future Power needs of the Canadian people. ;
