- Ontario's power trip: Beckygate — Ontario tax dollars go down the big drain
Web exclusive: Dalton McGuinty’s “culture of conservation” doesn't seem to apply to Crown corporations
By Parker GallantW hen I wrote about “Big Becky” and Ontario Power Generation on this page a few weeks ago, I had no idea I would stir up a hornet’s nest. I had simply written that it appeared that OPG was running way over budget on this $985-million dollar project and that the costs had ballooned to $1.6-billion and that there was a four-year delay to completion. What I had hoped for was some plausible explanation as to what has happened but OPG was silent in its press release and in its management discussion paper when its 2009 annual report was issued. As a banker, my knowledge of rocks and tunneling is pretty limited.
