The energy police are coming....

I can see this coming to Canada. This is from the Daily Telegraph in the UK.

'Energy wardens' will police homes and offices to ensure that they do not waste gas and electricity under a radical plan being considered by John Prescott.


An extraordinary blueprint being studied by the Deputy Prime Minister suggests conserving energy by monitoring the habits of home owners in the same way that air raid wardens made people turn off their lights during the Blitz.

Householders will also be forced to conduct an "annual energy audit" of their homes, defending the amount of fuel they have consumed.
