Dave Andrews Quotations

We're really excited about this. It's a great chance to showcase our league here in this city.

We have no direct interest in those cities and don't have a strategic plan to include them, but that doesn't mean we won't in the future.

We have heard from many PUD customers that they prefer smaller, more frequent rate increases versus larger, occasional rate increases.

Sidney Crosby is going to play where Sidney Crosby and his agent decide he's going to play. Any player who has reached the age of 18 by Sept. 15 is eligible to play in our league if he is appropriately under contract.

No one was happy when this happened. There were girls that played varsity last year that aren't getting that chance now. But the kids seem to be getting along pretty well and they're playing really good golf.

On South Cloverdale Road, there were both poles and lines down, which took crews four hours to replace. Most of the customers hit were residential. There may have been a school without power, but that is less of a problem on a Sunday.

I am having discussions regarding the mandatory use of visors in our league with the stakeholders in our league, which includes the team owners, league personnel, the players' association and the National Hockey League. Unfortunately, it takes an incident like that to refocus attention on the issue.

If we need to drain the water, we will do it at a point where demand for electricity is low.

I thought we'd be decent. But we've been better than I thought.

We have had a lot of young people who have gone away to university.

We are not in the position where we need to sell anyone here,

When he came back to the club he had to cut back but he took it in his stride and I can't speak highly enough of what he has achieved.

We'd like to see Bonneville use the (surplus power) sales to keep rates as low as possible. We don't need another rate-raising factor out of our control.

We had a big turnout in Winnipeg but the point of this event is to showcase the Ricoh Coliseum to hockey fans in this city and the rest of Ontario. I think we'll sell out that beautiful building both nights (for the skills competition and game).

Didn't have a whole lot of life to him.

It's a beautiful building, and the game was very exciting. It was also a very knowledgable hockey crowd. And I believe that means good things in the future for this franchise.

There was also an outage from Stella Road west to the county line, those folks were out, too.

I'm divorced by the way. We split the house. I got the outside.

I love Victoria but personal feelings have very little to do with business.

I'm sure there's going to be resistance, but it's probably time we headed in that direction.

In response to higher electric costs, many customers have asked us to switch to monthly billing. We think monthly billing will especially help those on fixed incomes.

The fix is from a combination of a few things: engineering improvements and sediment acting as a natural block.

The first outage was at 8:20 a.m., and the last customer was back on by 3:30 p.m.. Most problems were taken care of in one to three hours.

All of the outages were related to winds. In some areas, the ground was so saturated that the wind knocked trees over.

The leakage is reduced to very minimal amounts.
