Actually, I think the province trying to move green and making EVERYONE's costs go up is fairer. In a capitalistic market, if one bank chooses to use Bullfrog in their branches, then they are at a competitive disadvantage to the other banks. Doing something good for the environment ends up being punished while those that choose the cheaper fossil fuels are rewarded. So if the Ontario government makes everyone's power green and more expensive, then all the banks go back to being on equal footing. (I'm using banks because I know TD advertises that they use Bullfrog despite the extra cost:
