News, highlights and more relating to this great province!
I'm not low-income, but I'm feeling very vulnerable.
I'll wait for delivery, each day until 3.
I believe it also includes a $50 rebate on all purchases of "qualified, energy-saving air-conditioning units" for everyone until the end of next month.
Who’s going to help them pay their power bill? Air conditioners use a lot of energy, further contributing to the heating of our planet. Ironic to think that this is the solution to cooling ourselves.
This really feels like a handout to the rich.
