Alberta NDP says Kenney government is failing Albertans who are stuck with high utility bills
CTV
Energy companies are no longer bound by a moratorium on shutting off power, which could cause issues for Albertans with mounting utility bills.
As of Friday, the grace period for those behind on payments is over, meaning providers can disconnect services, something the moratorium prevented during the winter months.
The number of Albertans who face shutoff is unclear, but its estimated that at least 1,000 ENMAX customers could be affected.
CTV News reached out to several energy companies for more precise numbers, but many did not respond to the request or would provide official numbers.
In a statement, Chinta Puxley, a spokesperson for ENMAX said, “We don’t provide specific customer account details as all customer information is confidential.”
