@NB_Power Our area in Fredericton has been without power for 31 hours now, on a bitterly cold weekend. I appreciate that employees are doing their best, but there could be much better communication with customers; simply adjusting the restoration time on your outage page is not helpful.

@NB_Power The citizens of NB could give back power if you have every one Solar systems. Drive costs for NB residents down and sell power elsewhere for a profit.

@nspowerinc How likely is a province wide outage tonight?
- a huge spike in demand tonight
- a deliberate power outage from Cape Breton to Hfx after a recent loss of NB power
- m***ive power outage elsewhere resulting from a mix of a few downed trees, software errors, & human error

@teesock Up or down as long as the same rule applies to NBPower and citizens. If gov says NBP needs more $$ cuz more bills, that's fine if we also get more $$ to pay our bigger bills.
If gov says to us, sorry you need to live w/ what you have, then same should apply to NBP. That's fair.

@cbcjones @NB_Power are dreaming in technicolor, A 2 yr rate freeze in todays dollars amounts to less than $25M. Then less than $20M. Over A DECADE of missed financial targets w/ promises as high as $100M/yr in net revenue is the issue backed by incompetent mngt making $15M total salary!

There was no big legal issue as cited in the above article, the electricity act prevented others from using NBP transmission. @Gov_NB opened the act & changed it to create a fake company to now own @NB_Power & at the same time could've made it so SJ Energy could use the T System!

At that time NBPower figured out that any money “saved” by not cutting the trees was quickly dumped down the sewer by paying for the outages that followed.
If anything, this program should be increased. It not only saves money in the long run…it keeps the lights on.

@NB_Power NB Power doesn't give a rat's arse about customers sitting in the cold during this Christmas.
That's what you get if you create a financial internal chaos instead of putting powerlines in the ground..
Time to get rid of overpaid managers who don't fix problems but create only..
