Any positive offset there is countered by my Electrical rate increasing form 5.79 to 6.59c/kWh.
Then again these rates and their actual effect on my final bill are marginal when considering the real impact of all the riders (admin, distribution, transmission, pool, rate, transaction, wtf, city of calgary, carbon tax). No to mention the gear grinder of them assuming all 90% used water equals wastewater, which is different than stormwater management. OK perhaps 90% is accurate in the winter... but not the summer.

Your relative usage to the average Calgarian is what matters for waste water. They could say 45% of water goes to wastewater and then just double the per cube rate. The 90% is probably correct though throughout the year as I would assume in coming up with the number they do metered water out of water treatment and metered water into waste water.
You only get screwed by this calc if your lawn is nicer than your neighbours.
