The meeting has been positioned with the minister's office as a discussion forum around certain key fundamental topics (see points 1 to 4 below) If you would like to discuss other topics that interest your company please feel free to air these issues in the discussion. We are suggesting that everything discussed in this form is held "off the record" Directions: From Calgary, follow the Trans Canada Highway West to the first Banff exit (Banff/Lake Minnewanka sign). Turn left onto Banff Avenue and proceed towards downtown Banff. The Banff Rocky Mountain Resort is the first hotel on the left, at the corner of Banff Avenue and Tunnel Mountain Road. Business casual or golf attire Potential subjects, as relayed to the minister's office: 1. What is the Government planning to do with the Electricity market? Over the past 12 months intervention by the government and governmental agencies drastically affected the market for electricity. These actions caused dramatic sudden changes in forward market prices. The APMA members are concerned that this behavior (often given the idiom 'reactionary regulation') will persist. 2. What is the Governments view on transmission lines to the US markets? The prospect of transmission lines that would directly connect the Alberta market with US market is an interesting subject to most power marketers. What is the current position of the government on the how the building, owning and marketing of these hypothetical transmission lines would work in the new market? 3. What is the government planning to with the remaining unsold PPA? Last years decision by the Balancing Pool to sell energy from the unsold Power Purchase Arrangements in a single auction dramatically affected the forward market for electricity. With the balancing pool still the custodian of the unsold PPAs ? What is the plan going forward for the release of the unsold PPAs into the market.
