To the editor:
I would like to file a concern about BC Hydro's intention to install smart meters in British Columbia at a cost to customers of $1 billion.
I believe this is totally unnecessary for customers. My hydro meter is on my bedroom wall where I sleep and I am very concerned about the health problems that this will generate.
These meters have been installed in other areas, such as California, and the problems from these meters have been well documented there. Where these smart meters have been installed, hydro rates have doubled and few people can afford that.
The current meters work just fine. Please put a moratorium on smart meters.
