I'd be worried about counterfeit bills but I am cynical.

There's a facebook group about Engrish.

Exactly, I'll always rent because I like the flexibility. I might buy when I can pay off a house in 3 years.

Do you have a programmable thermostat? What kind of heating is it? You going to have time of use billing. How many hours a day is the TV going to be on (in each rate period)? Same for the computer. A totally random guess is less than $100.

That's why I don't want to move. I don't have them and don't want them. :-) I had cockroaches in my last place but no bugs here. :-)

Who told the tenants, the super? His job is to rent units. To be fair, before time of use, maybe the electricity bills were $60-$80. It doesn't make sense to me to pay your own heating & AC when you have no control over how efficient it is.

Your landlord is bound by the lease. If each lease on the renewal date says in writing that electricity is included then he must pay it. If the landlord says "verbally" that electricity is included but the lease does not then I recommend seeing a lawyer. If it is "grandfathered", I'd get...

"If you have a Smart Meter installed, your utility has the option of charging different rates throughout the day." So there is no exact answer. Your utility can do what it wants. I don't think there is a way to pay time of use rates UNLESS you have a smart meter. My parents outside...

My building has electricity included in the rent. What are the chances when time of use billing comes into effect that my building will implement an individual meter? I support paying for the electricity I use (I look forward to it :-)).

That is interesting. The ONE translator I know, is gay.

Aries, Rightie.

Do you mean from a society of architecture?

Which I think means you're out of luck during the day.

Ryerson is well known and it has been accredited as a university for many years.

I am aware of phantom load. I do not get why electronics need a phantom load, I suspect most people wouldn't mind turning on the tv (and whatever else needs to be on) and just use the remote to change channels and control the volume.

I live in a Homestead.ca building and they have no smoke free buildings. I assume there is no demand but I think that is ignorance.

True I guess. I dislike having to pay to have clean air.

I wonder if "no smoking on balconies" is as enforceable as the "no pets" rule on the lease (ie. not at all).
