THOUSANDS OF ONTARIANS TELL KATHLEEN WYNNE TO STOP HYDRO PRIVATIZATION

Just 48 hours after Ontario’s New Democrats launched their campaign against the privatization of Hydro One, over 7,000 Ontarians have sent a message to Kathleen Wynne’s Liberals that they strongly oppose her sell off of Hydro One.

“Our campaign has early momentum –and I can’t say that I’m surprised as when I’m out talking with Ontarians they tell me loud and clear that they think selling off Hydro One is just plain wrong,” said Andrea Horwath, Leader Ontario’s New Democrats.

“This is the wrong choice and Ontarians will pay the price. Rates will go up, we will lose stable revenue that pays for healthcare and the reliability of our electricity system will be out of our hands.'

' We urge Ontarians to visit www.youpaytheprice.ca , send a message to their MPP, download and share our postcard and tell Kathleen Wynne that selling Hydro One is wrong --  Ontarians shouldn’t pay the price for this short-sighted sell off.”
