Manitoba Hydro closes 12 rural offices amid executive pay rise
The Manitoba NDP government faces criticism as Manitoba Hydro closes 12 rural district offices to save about 1 million while executive salaries rise by 1.4 million from 2012 to 2014. Rates have climbed 25 percent across eight increases since Greg Selinger's tenure, with further hikes planned to fund the BiPole III line. The board and leadership argue efficiency and savings will follow, but customers dispute this.
