If you want to connect to the grid you need to follow the rules and pay your fair share. That means paying for power in and paying for power out.
Actually, I can't. It's against the law. Unless I am on rural unimproved land I am NOT allowed to do whatever the hell I want. I am not allowed to disconnect from the grid and run under my own solar installation, because of the laws that protect the monopoly owned by the electric companies. I'm sure the same applies to you in Alberta. Once connected, they own you. They can arbitrarily disconnect you from the grid at their liking, but you are not allowed to disconnect and be self sufficient.
