To be fair, this is the joys of political wavering.  I won't argue that 
privatization is a great idea for electricity, but Ontario's current 
power woes have more to do with the fact that (figuratively speaking) 
the night before things were to be privatized, the Conservative govt had 
a changing of the guard, got cold feet and changed their minds.  The 
result being a half-assed system that is worse than either the fully 
government run system was or a fully privatized system would have been.

Combine that with a bad financial situation (thanks to the 
Conservatives) and we have the current set of problems
