EPCOR

Let me be clear that I would not support the sale of any other part of the company which directly serves Edmontonians – those being the water treatment, wastewater treatment and electricity distribution utilities. I did support the restructuring and sale of the power generating part of EPCOR (which became Capital Power) but I was reluctant about the process, as I wrote here. The main reason I supported the change was that I wanted EPCOR out of the coal business because I see real risks there, as discussed further in this post. I did seek clarification with a motion at council that any future debate about selling the EPCOR water, wastewater or wires that directly serve Edmontonians would come to Council, and wrote about it here.
