When the NDP were in power this was occuring. When the UCP won this stopped and or happened less after it was discovered that wind energy was completely unreliable and the UCP ramped up natural gas and coal fired electricity.
I remember under the NDP a few times the power cut out for hours in the winter when it was minus 20. I had to use candles all over the house to keep rooms warm.
If ppl want the ndp in power again in Alberta they best get ready for power shortages again as the NDP dont care if ppl live or die as long as they keep agendaing
