The provincial government turns over BC's rivers to multinationals, and the federal government helps finance it.

Plutonic Power has received a $73 million dollar "incentive" from the federal government for its Toba Montrose project. The grant, under the federal EcoENERGY program gives Plutonic power $10 for each MWh produced for 10 years. The grant was established to "encourage the production of... low-impact renewable energy sources.”
