BC Hydro Cuts Power to Smart Meter Refuser

And so it begins… This is the first case I have heard about of BC Hydro cutting someone’s power for refusing a smart meter – in this case a woman with EHS (electrohypersensitivity) whose health would have been compromised if she hadn’t switched her meter back to analogue. Beyond Orwellian.

BC Hydro has turned off power to a Peachland residence after the homeowners replaced a smart meter with an uncertified analog meter.

Deborah Stutters told Capital News a BC Hydro truck with three to five employees showed up at her Princeton Avenue home Wednesday around 1 p.m. to cut the power to her house.

Stutters indicated she didn’t want a smart meter and said she was assured the meter would be replaced with another analog meter.

Stutters has electromagnetic field sensitivity and had declined getting the smart meter for health reasons…

    Better correct your article. The Stutters did not or do not own a cordless phone. You copied and pasted an article where the author later rescinded that comment because it was untrue.
