Subject: Wonder how Hydro rates are being "reduced" by 17% thru re-financing ?
 -see Att Ont News Release https://news.ontario.ca/mei/en/2017/03/refinancing-the-global-adjustment.html

"In the EARLY years, a portion of the costs covered by the Global Adjustment(GA) would be REFINANCED TO REDUCE pressure on today’s electricity ratepayers.

"In LATER years, the cost of refinancing would be RECOVERED FROM ratepayers.

"Under current forecasts, the immediate reduction in the GA would be about $2.5 billion PER YEAR on average over the first 10 years, with ANNUAL interest costs not exceeding $1.4 billion."
