did you know that manitoba hydro loses between a million and a million five every single month on wind power....the amount they are contracted to pay for it is about twice what they can sell it for....and they have to buy it no matter what, even if they are spilling water at the dams.

hydro is more profitable when the wind doesnt blow and they are not forced to buy power from the wind farms....it all for political optics.
