BC Liberals forcing BC Hydro into Long Term Acquistions of IPP appears to be the MO for the sale of the Liquor Distribution Branch!

The BBC especially likes this one:  The Kerr Wood Leidal Associates Ltd. ( Kerr Wood) Run-of-River Resource Assessment for B.C. ( F5) 

121 pages long, but the number crunching of just how much BC Hydro customers will be paying for Run-of-the-River projects starts on Page 117!

And if you're worried about what Rich Coleman is doing about the price of your next drink, by his selling off the Liquor Distribution rights to a third party, look no further than APPENDIX M that says this:

 20.1 Privilege: BC Hydro may award an EPA to the Proponent(s) that in BC Hydro’s sole and unfettered opinion, offers the resource(s) that best serves the interests of BC Hydro and its ratepayers. The Proposal(s) having the lowest price(s) or lowest cost to BC Hydro will not necessarily be successful. BC Hydro may award no EPAs, or may terminate the procurement process at any time. BC Hydro is not obliged to provide to Proponents reasons for the award of EPAs or the rejection of any Proposal, or for termination of the RFP procurement process.

Modified to fit the sale of BC Liquor Distribution

20.1 Privilege: BC Liquor may award an EPA to the Proponent(s) that in BC Liquor’s sole and unfettered opinion, offers the resource(s) that best serves the interests of BC Liquor and its buyers.
