  • Ontario-Québec Electricity Collaboration and Interprovincial
    Ontario-Québec electricity collaboration and interprovincial trade barriers: using the Agreement on Internal Trade to promote a more sustainable electricity sector in Canada Zachary D’Onofrio 31 March 2016 A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies, York University, Toronto Ontario, Canada ________________ __________________ Student Signature Supervisor Signature Zachary D’Onofrio Mark Winfield Abstract The purpose of this major paper is to examine the potential for the Agreement on Internal Trade (“AIT”) to facilitate electricity trade between the provinces of Ontario and Québec. The AIT covers a wide range of topics, but its chapter on energy was never completed. The principle objective of this paper is to identify current interprovincial trade barriers in the electricity sector and determine whether the addition of an energy chapter to the AIT would be a viable method of minimizing those barriers. In recent months, importing electricity from Québec has been increasingly recognized as an alternative to building electricity production infrastructure in Ontario. Two recent workshops in Toronto and Montréal identified a number of potential benefits that could be achieved through greater electricity collaboration between the two provinces. These include technical benefits such as greater flexibility and the balancing of intermittent renewable energy resources; economic benefits from a price somewhere between what Québec currently receives for its electricity exports to the Northeastern United States and the price that Ontario is planning to pay for its nuclear refurbishments; and the political opportunity to act cooperatively in demonstrating leadership on the issue of climate change.

The Commission finally brought a recom- mendation to partition Palestine, making two states, Jewish and Arab. The Zionists were jubilant, the Arabs utterly dismayed. The UN General Assembly voted approval of the Commission's recommendation the same year and the Jewish state came into being, May 1948.

In his inimical GOD AND GEOGRAPHY style he emphasized that for the first time in more than 2000 years, there was a state known as Israel. A bloody conflict between the Arabs and Jews followed in 1948. This tragic war resulted in the displacement of 800,000 to one million Arabs. There was another bloody skirmish in 1956.
