Posted Mon Mar 16 2009: from CBC (Canada):
Nova Scotia Power to invest in wind energy http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1237223642
The Nova Scotia government plans to revise rules that bar Nova Scotia Power from investing in wind power companies, in hopes of helping the utility reach its green energy goals. Currently, Nova Scotia Power is forbidden from investing in wind turbine companies, but Energy Minister Barry Barnet said the province wants that to change. "I think there was kind of a mutual coming-of-the-minds that this is the way we can meet each other's objectives," Barnet said. "It's imbedded within the regulation and I'm not sure why it was put in there in the first place. The idea was to have the independent producers have the ability to operate separately from Nova Scotia Power."

Can we figure out how to identify stupidity and pre-emergency self-defeating regulations within bureaucracies?
