A recent report from the Fraser Institute co-authored by economics professor Ross McKitrick is calling Ontario's wind and solar power investments into question. According to the report released October 30, Ontario's rising energy prices are the result of these investments, which account for just four per cent of the province's energy needs, but are responsible for 20 per cent of all energy costs. Media coverage includes the Ottawa Citizen [1], National Post [2], CTV News [3] and Canoe online [4]. The National Post article is written by McKitrick and fellow author Tom Adams.
