    2. To direct Hydro One to build a new 20 km transmission line in Ottawa, increase our ability to import Quebec power by 17.5 billion kWh per year and direct the IESO to seek negotiated long-term electricity supply and storage (load balancing) contracts with Hydro Quebec to help phase-out our gas plants and to meet our electricity needs at a lower cost than re-building up to ten nuclear reactors; and
