I write to object to any hydro increase for Toronto Hydro. I have went back into my hydro bills and have never seen consumption under 960 kWh during a 1 month period. I would think that the only time anyone consumed less than 800 kwh in a 1 month period was during the blackout in 2003. They propose an increase of 9% to those who could possibly stay below 800 kWh.



The 13% increase more than likely applies to everyone. The City of Toronto has been dumped on continuously by the lavish spending at all the levels of government. I have complained of blatant waste and nothing is, has or will ever be done.



I have adhered to the “peak usage” times, don’t have air conditioning, don’t use the dryer until 10 pm and that’s only if it rains for days at a time and I can’t hang my clothes on the line, and am not home from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm, 5 days per week. Has my hydro consumption went down? No, since they installed the so-called “smart meters” nothing has changed except that my hydro bill is up, up up.



For example – Hydro for 66 days for the period June 20, 2008 to August 25, 2008 cost me $164.32; Hydro for 62 days for the period June 26, 2009 to August 27, 2009 cost me $198.02 – I believe they have already increased hydro substantially.



Please give precedence to the economic situation all over the world, and deny any hydro increase at this time.



Thank you.
