How many Queen's Park idiots does it take to ban a lightbulb?

Ugh. The Nanny State Of Ontario has just announced a ban on the sale of incandescent bulbs and other inefficient lighting technologies by 2012. Apparently that wasn't even earlier enough for the opposition parties.

Coming soon to a province near you.

What's next? A National Light Bulb Registry?
