Manitoba Hydro is looking for feedback on a possible electricity rate hike.
A recent opinion poll asks how Manitobans would feel about paying an extra $9 a month, citing money for infrastructure.
Another poll asks whether people might switch their use of large appliances to evenings or weekends if it means saving money on monthly electrical bills.
Some other provinces already have such a system, often called time-of-use rates, where charges are higher during the day and lower at night.
\Manitoba Hydro commissioned this opinion poll saying it’s faced with aging infrastructure and a growing demand for energy.
