Name of Utility Company:Avista
Comment:I am strongly against the Hydro One -Avista merger for several reasons:
If the Canadiancompany Hydro One purchaseof an American utility,Avista Corp.if allowed,the Providence of Ontario
will be taking over 13 dams and much infrastructure in the Pacific Northwest just before the re-negotiation of an
internationaltreaty with Canada.(Columbia RiverTreaty)If approved,Avista would be fullyowned by a foreign
company which is controlled by the Province of Ontario holding 41%of its shares and maintains control over Hydro One.
Hydro One operates under Canadian law and is governed by the Green Energy Act and other energy policies.Avista
would be operating under foreign laws if this merger is approved.The founderof Hydro One is Maurice Strong,a
declared socialist who was considered the Father of False Global Warning,and was the promoter of Global Governance
by the UN,where he was the Energy Program Founder and architect of the Kyoto Protocol.
Hydro One intends to implement their renewable energy projects through Avista,and because of their green energy
policies Hydro One customers have experienced severe rate increases,to the point of having their electricity shut off
due to inabilityto pay.Hydro One's rates are currently over double from Avista rates (28 cents vs 8 cents).It is
anticipated the same will happen to Avista customers should this merger be finalized.
This puts the Avista in a very precarious position as a utilitythat serves customers in several U.S.states.Avista
customers would be at the mercy of foreign government decisions.
Please don't allow this merger.
Thankyou,
John Mojzis

Comment:I am unequivocally opposed to a foreign government owning/managing or otherwise controlling an
infrastructure service in Idaho or anywhere else in America!This is highly dangerous,exposing US citizens indirectly to
foreign control.
The guaranteed price hikes because of the Canadian companies outrageous views of conservation are simply
unacceptable.We do not contract with American companies to be sold off to foreign exchanges!!
This is intolerable,and beyond beliefthat it is even being considered.This will be fought tooth and nail,and as American
commissioners you havean obligationand dutyto the welfare of American citizens first and foremost!

Comment:I am an Avista customer and I am against this merger.It is imperative that we keep our power supply system
in the control of American companies.Selling America's power grid to a foreign country exposes us to regulation we
have no say in and large tariffs durin an unstable time in regard to trade.While l love Canada and the Canadian people I
would rather we maintain control of something as vital as our power grid as a matter of national security.

Comment:
To whom it may concern,
As a resident of Idaho,and citizen of the United States,I would like to voice my opposition to the acquisition of AvistaUtilitiesbyHyrdoOne.
My primary objection is that I believe it is not right that a foreign company own such an extensive part of our country's
infrastructure which encompassesthe entire Pacific Northwest.I do not want a foreign policy,agendas,and politics toaffectAmericanpowercustomers.
This acquisition would mean the Province of Ontario (which holds 41%of the shares of Hydro One)will be wieldingdirectinfluenceanddecisionmakingpowerover13damsandmuchinfrastructureinthePacificNorthwest,just beforethere-negotiation of an internationaltreaty with Canada (Columbia RiverTreaty).
This is foolish.
Please,for the safeguarding of American sovereignty,to protect our infrastructure as "our own,"and to keep foreignpoliciesandagendaoutofIdahoandtheUnitedStates,reject this acquisition.
Sincerely,
Mila Gaulrapp

Comment:As an Idaho Citizen I strongly appose any merger with a foreign government regardless if it is a company or
not.This leavesthe United States citizen with no voice.This is not the same as a global company providing a product.
This company would be providing a life sustaining service that should be governed by the nation that depends on it.It is
an absolute shame that such a merger would even be considered,and highlights the insanity of some in our
government.Please do not allow this merger to proceed.It is not in the best interest of the citizens of Idaho or theUnitedStates.YOU SWORE TO PROTECT US AND OUR CONSTITUTION!WE ARE NOTA ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT!
WE ARE A CONSTITUTIONALREPUBLIC!NOTA PROVINCE OF CANADA!

Comment:Thank you for taking time to read my comment.
I respectfully implore the committee to decline the offer from Hydro One,Avista Corp.,or any of its affiliates from taking
over Idaho Power or any other utilitycompany in the United States.United States utilitycompanies should not be run by
a forgein organization.This forgein company will not be abiding by United States law,but rather,forgein law.This will
put a hugefinancial burden on current customers through raised prices and an unfair market for Idahoans.This merger
would mean the end of utilities for thousands of customers.There are those that depend on Idaho Power prices to
maintain heat in the winter or coolness in the summer.Every part of our infrastructure would be negatively affected by
this unnecessarymerger.This will negatively affect small businesses,hospitals,schools,citizens,corporate businesses,
and government buildings.Not only will our power bills be nearly tripled,but all the aforementioned negatively affected
areas will be forced to raised their prices on their goods and wares to offset the cost of their power bill.Overall,this is
not a good deal for anyone except those that are going to be making money off this deal.I implore you to put the
considerations of the people and businesses that this will affect over that of those who will be making money from this
deal.Again,thank you for taking the time to read my comment.

Comment:To whom it may concern,
As an Avista utility customer,a resident of Idaho,and citizen of the United States,I would like to voice my opposition to
the acquisition of Avista Utilities by Hyrdo One.
My primary objection is that I believe it is not right that a foreign company own such an extensive part of Idaho
infrastructure.I do not want a foreign policy,agendas,and politics to affect Idaho power customers.
This acquisition would mean the Province of Ontario (which holds 41%of the shares of Hydro One)will be wielding
direct influence and decision making power over 13 dams and much infrastructure in the Pacific Northwest,just before
the re-negotiation of an international treaty with Canada (Columbia RiverTreaty).
This is foolish.
Please,for the safeguarding of American sovereignty,to protect our infrastructure as "our own,"and to keep foreign
policies and agenda out of Idaho and the United States,reject this acquisition.
Sincerely,
Daniel Foucachon,
CEO,Roman Roads Media

I urge you to say no to this merger.Not only is Canadian power companies under extreme pressureto use failed
renewable wind and solar power that has resulted in power outages and sky rocketing rates.It's also just a terrible idea
for them to have control of US power grid and rates.This should not be ok anywhere in the US.
This will not be good for Idaho or Americal
Please say no!

Comment:Avista Sale to Hydro One
Please be advisedthat I am completely against the sale of Avista Utilities to Hydro One now or in the future.There is no
sound reasoning for the sale of our utilities to a foreign entity,along with all associated dams and water rights.We
cannot continue to sell,giveaway or jeopardize our access to vital utilities and infrastructure to foreign entities over
which we have little or no control.Hydro one could easily sell or negotiate away our utilities and infrastructure to a
hostile foreign entity to use as a weapon against Idahoans and our nation as a whole.

Comment:Avista is about to be bought by a CanadianCompany and come under Canadian rules.Canada is about to
enter into the sort of Green activism required by the Paris Agreement and which has been repudiated by the USA.As
such their holding company will be buying massiveamounts of Carbon Footprint credits and these puchases will fall in
part on the backs of Idahoans subject to their premiums without redress.It is questionable if this is even legal but
certainly it will be tested in court and will cause tremendous expenseto Avista which also will be passed to the customer
base.Thus I submit that the Commission disallow this takeover since it will render them unable to control the outcome
and perhaps place them into the way of untold legal actions and certainly increasethe premium that Idahoanspay by
about three times for their needed electricity.

power needs should they become a government hostile to the U.S.This could happen if Hydro One goes bankrupt and
sells to someone in a country hostile to the U.S.-such as China,for instance.
The "Golden Share"issue,which has been voiced as a concern at at least two of your hearings,needs to be explained.
