Nova Scotia's NDP and Premier Houston reject an 8% electricity rate hike amid outages and affordability crises.
The Nova Scotia NDP has condemned an 8% proposed electricity rate hike by Nova Scotia Power, calling it unreasonable amid widespread outages and affordability struggles, with nearly half the province finding bills unaffordable since 2021.
NDP leader Claudia Chender criticized Premier Tim Houston’s handling of the issue despite his new role as energy minister, demanding stronger accountability.
Houston also rejected the increase, citing residents’ hardships and calling for a formal investigation into billing inaccuracies following a spring cyberattack that disrupted service for over 250,000 customers.
