Here's an idea for Alberta. Instead of allowing a new AI facility to draw on the grid before its self-supply gets up and running tell it to make a pre-investment in generating capacity - even renewable generating capacity! Yes it will slow investment but perhaps that's a good thing! #abpoli #cdnpoli
