The government is not going to let people have free energy - even in Canada. A southern Ontario couple was recently forced to close a natural gas well that provided several families with free fuel. The well was ordered closed despite the fact that the well had been operated by various families since the 1930s.

For decades, the Murray family of southern Ontario has lived on a rare luxury - they've heated their household for free.
But a government order is now demanding that the couple in their 70s shut down a 1931 natural gas well on their property, and the two will have to cough up tens of thousands of dollars to cap the historic well.
"We got something we're not paying for so there's no money generated and so they want to close it," said Hector Murray, 73, wearily shrugging off the three-year battle, as he resigned himself to the loss.
