INTRODUCTION to Letter below:

BC Hydro is trying once more to intimidate us into believing we have no choice but to accept the smart meters. At the same time, they are hoping to send a message to BCUC that the opposition is dying, and that people are accepting the program. The higher the fees the better because there are so few left to be “convinced.”

We must let BC Hydro and the BC Utilities Commission know that we are sick and tired of this unconscionable treatment. No one should agree to accepting a meter out of fear. Our class action is aimed directly at these tactics. Join with us in fighting for our civil rights.

I hope each of you will send the following lawyer-approved letter, or your own version, to BC Hydro via Greg Reimer at [email protected]

Send copies to your local radio station and newspaper. It’s time we all began to speak loudly.


If you would rather send your response by Canada Post, the address given on BC Hydro’s “Enrolment Form” is:

(Mr. Greg Reimer)
