Get fucked.
Get fucked.
I'm surprised there isn't more public uproar about them hiring an Ontario company for the labour with so many Albertans out of work.
Its simply astounding the people who fall for this kind of bullshit.Originally posted by carson blocks

You have to think, around 25% of the Albertan population is ok with this crap and/or applauds it
They must be funding it by selling your contact info, since the carbon tax revenue is already allocated elsewhere.Originally posted by GOnSHO

Of course the profits and tax revenue moves east, most of which coming from the margins on all this stuff.Originally posted by HiTempguy1

Nah, more like 40% as that was the popular vote percentage for the NDP in the 2015 election.Originally posted by HiTempguy1

Apparently its capped to the first 10,000 households that sign up...
I'm not signing up, I don't want to be a part of the warped statistics this is going to give the NDP to use as propaganda in the next election..

Where is this mentioned?
Someone mentioned it before, but it likely went through the standard RFP process and they were the best/lowest bidder. All contracts would have to go through this process.Originally posted by carson blocks

If you look at ecofitts job openings, they're hiring installers so it looks like qualified Albertans can still be hired. Not sure if they will actually hire Albertans but it would make sense to since the job locations are mostly in Alberta.

So if the limit is 10,000 houses they are planning on getting invoiced around $2,000 for each house! To change light bulbs!
I'd be willing to accept the idea that an Ontarioan would know how to screw in a light bulb properly.
You do know, that technically with old style 60 and 100 watt lightbulbs you are supposed to tighten and then untwist a quarter to half turn to allow for heat expansion right? Few people do.

^Well that explains why it's hard to replace a light bulb while it's still on. Especially an incandescent bulb.
Oh, SNAP!Originally posted by BrknFngrs

Well to think that everyone I've known for my almost 6 decades on this big ball of dirt has been doing it all wrong. What a bunch of morans we all are, thankfully the Ontarioans can save us from ourselves.Originally posted by ZenOps

2 Stage incandescent bulbs will make LED lights obsolete. Don't fall into the old CFL trap.
Pfft, in 20 years.
Said the CFL salesman about LEDs.Originally posted by suntan

LEDs were invented in 1927.
CFLs have been around forever as well, it's not like they were a new technology.
As a practical matter people liked them simply because IBs burnt out so often that just on that basis alone getting a bulb that lasted for years saved on money.
Makes me wonder how long a 2-stage IB's life would be, as it's still dealing with a wire filament.

Like 1890 for CFL or their predecessors
How technology gets sidelined by cheap and dirty energy
Is that why everyone hated Harper, because he banned incandescent light bulbs? Energy efficiency without having to collect a tax for it, how clever.
