MLA for Drumheller-Stettler, Nate Horner ended 2020 on a high note by presenting a private member’s motion to the Alberta Legislature to give all Albertans a fair shake on their utility bills.
On December 14, Motion 515 passed unanimously. His motion was that “the Legislative Assembly urge the Government to work with electricity agencies and electric utilities to lower transmission and distribution costs for consumers.”
“Motion 515 is my attempt to address what I believe is a critical issue for Alberta, the egregiously high cost of transmission and distribution of electricity in this province,” he said in his address.
