When asked what they were doing to prevent a power blackout from happening again, he responded something to the effect that – our plan is already in place and working, what with consumers setting an energy conservation record, today. The reporter noted that that was what their consumers were doing to cope. She then asked again if the government was planning to: raise the price of energy; build more power stations; get excited about the re-tooling cost and time overruns at the existing nuclear power station in Pickering; and/or revisit the concept of deregulation. To this he responded no, nothing like that.
