Canadian Renewable Energy Initiative

With all the cold weather in their country it is easy to think that Canadians are probably least concerned about global warming. However, there are already Canadian government programs in place to drive clean energy sources into the mainstream. Here is an example. The Ontario government is willing to pay 7 times more than the cost of power generated through coal fired plants. Even if these costs will be eventually passed on to the consumer, I believe the initiative shows the will to look in a new direction and a deep understanding that global warming is indeed manmade.
