Ontario will pay households with central air conditioning and a smart thermostat who volunteer to allow the IESO to reduce their cooling load in order to reduce peak demand

Ontario is putting an additional $342 million toward energy efficiency programs, including paying some customers to run their air conditioning less on hot summer days.

Smith says the expanded programs, expected to be rolled out starting next spring, will save enough electricity by 2025 to power about 130,000 homes a year.

Editorial | Seeking clarity on Ontario’s autism therapyStarEditorial: If the province can't reach its target for the Ontario Autism Program, then it ought to come clean and admit it, rather than offering hollow assurances. The new OAP had hope that it could be a good program. Like all things fordnation you are too cheap and the lack of therapy is hurting are most vulnerable population. Also SylviaJonesMPP give your head a shake, get your crap together some transparency pls, do your job. They think if they don’t address the problem, then there is no problem.

They're crooks, and not interested in helping citizens.
