It will ultimately cost Ontario taxpayers $1.1 billion to scrap two gas plants that were planned for Oakville and Mississauga. That's the word from Auditor General Bonnie Lysyk in a long-awaited report Tuesday on the cost of cancelling the Oakville generating station in 2010. Lysyk said the tab for relocating the plant to Napanee, Ont. is $675 million and could mushroom to $815 million -- much higher than the $310 million the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) estimated and a whole lot more than the $40 million the Liberals claimed. Oakville politicians and residents joined the rest of Ontario in coming to grips with Lysyk's report. During a Queen's Park press conference yesterday , Lysyk stated the decision to quash the 900-megawatt gas- red power plant in Oakville and move it to Napanee could cost Ontarians as much as $815 million. An earlier auditor general's report estimated the cancellation of the Mississauga facility cost $275 million. see Flynn on p.4 Neurofeedback and learning strategies can provide a lasting improvement.
