ORDERS OF THE DAY			ORDRE DU JOUR
Opposition Day			Jour de l'opposition
Mr. Hampton moved,			M. Hampton propose,
Be it resolved: That skyrocketing hydro bills have shown beyond any doubt that Ontario's hydro system must be operated as a non-profit public service; That no portion of Hydro One or Ontario Power Generation should be sold or otherwise transferred into the control of profit-seeking corporations; That hydro bills for all customers, including the price of the electricity itself, must be regulated on the basis of power at cost by an independent Public Utilities Commission; That Ontario Power Generation should get back into the business of building generating capacity, starting with a major commitment to green power, conservation and efficiency but also including a significant amount of gas-fired power. Enough new generation should be built to allow all Ontario's coal-fired generating plants to be shut down by 2007. OPG's plans for new capacity should be subject to public review and a final decision by the independent Public Utilities Commission; and That it is now urgent to terminate the disastrous experiment with a so-called competitive market in electricity.
