Reply to Pine tree power question by respaaaaaj
There are lots of questions that have been left unanswered regarding PTP's plan. The lack of transparent information along with the enormous debt we'd take on is pretty scary. I just want to see my bill lower but it's clear that PTP's plan won't achieve that.

The corridor doesn't have anything to do with our current rates, although it is one project that could actually bring an increase in energy potential to our area. As many people have said, CMP only controls the delivery portion of your bill, which is much smaller than the supply portion. Unfortunately, they often take the fall for the whole increase, even though fossil fuel companies are really the people to blame!

While you are busy promoting Pine Tree's initiative by pushing false information and emotion-fueled posts, others are sticking with the facts. CMP isn't perfect, but I'm certainly grateful for their consistent efforts during storms and the thought of a utility takeover is downright terrifying for a lot of reasons.
You call out everyone on here who is invested in our fight against climate change and accuse people of being a corporate "shrill," but you are by far the most vocal supporter of Our Power. So who is getting paid??

CMP is really becoming a local punching bag! Tidal energy is a fascinating thing- we have an optimal location for potential access. I'd love to hear more about what this could bring to our communities in terms of jobs, resources, and profits.
