ugh that would piss me off beyond belief! There has gotta be a way around it. They have those things in British Columbia and iirc from my internet browsings some folks were able to successfully fight them and not have them installed on their homes, but they had to jump through hoops of fire to have their way. I could be wrong though, this was a while ago.
They tried to implement them in my province too but thankfully the people said NO!
