Uh,

so there you go um so they're now which is interesting is they are currently bc hydro is currently bound by regulations to phase out all fossil fuel power plants by 2030 sorry what that's four years from now what anyways i mean is that real yeah i'm dead serious yeah yeah so i but this is the challenge right like rich like

like economic reality or math is basically just colliding with ideology.

Who do you think is going to win?

Like literally, they're telling you.

That's what I go with.

I don't know.

Anyways, I know like we have listeners that are like in Saskatoon or, you know, Red Deer, Alberta that probably don't care.

But I think it's just really just proves like some of the ideology that drives like or has been driving the decision making in this country.

Obviously, the Trudeau era was emblematic of that.

But yeah, I think the EB thing in BC, he's all over that.

He just loves it.

And just, yeah, again, to see that we can export all of this LNG across the world, and we have this massive natural gas reserves here in British Columbia, but you can't use it to power your home.

Meanwhile, like...

The BC Hydro is short, desperately short of power, and it's going to get worse.

Anyways, just found that.

So just to give you an example, one way that they could, like, alleviate some of the pressures on the electric grid or the power consumption from BC Hydro is, like, would they basically force, like, new LNG expansions, for example?

They have to, like, electrify.

So even though you have, like, that baseload energy there, they force them to basically get to...

to like a environmental standard, like a net zero effectively to get on the electrical grid.
