‘Why don’t you fight for what we have, and what works?’ SaskPower holds open house in Estevan on $1 billion interconnect with US, solar and nuclear

‘Why don’t you fight for what we have, and what works?’ SaskPower holds open house in Estevan on $1 billion interconnect with US, solar and nuclear

This story is long, but worth it, especially if your livelihood is impacted by coal mining or power generation.

By the next spring, it was $65,000 a tonne.
