Subject: Electricity Rate Change



I am protesting the recent application by the Hydro 1 networks for an increase in Electricity Distribution fees.



With the economy as it is at the moment, the last thing anyone needs is another increase, particularly people who have recently lost their jobs, will be losing their jobs and poor low income seniors, like myself. We are constantly being advised to conserve as there is a limited amount of electricity available, but are repeatedly having to cope with distribution increases, presumably to make up for the less amount of electricity being used. So it seems.



I hope the Board will think very carefully about this recent application by Hydro 1 network.
