Breaking News: UARB approves Nova Scotia Power rate increase

Posted by Tim Bousquet on Wed, Nov 5, 2008 at 2:50 PM

I just received the Utility and Review Board's decision granting Nova Scotia Power's 9.3 percent rate increase. I've only skimmed the decision, but will have much commentary in coming days. You can read it yourself here.

Survey Asks

Do you agree with Halifax's school board cutting 152 teachers?

  • Yes, the board needs to meet its shrinking budget.
  • Only if managers and bureaucracy get a similar cut.
  • I don't care, I support the private education system.
  • No, giving young citizens the best education is too important to cut.

"The decision means most Nova Scotia Power customers, including residential and commercial customers, will experience a rate increase of 9.4% on January 1, 2009. The overall average increase across all classes will be 9.3%" Im curious to who isn't included.Public services such as hospitals?
