The updates as of now seem to be that the power is slowly returning to the affected areas, but Mike Bloomberg has not yet apologized for speaking for the entire US power industry and accusing Canada of being the problem, even though all the experts were speaking of the ageing electrical grid and how it has needed to be replaced for a long time. Of course, the two major US parties have different views of who is the problem, and how to solve it. One side says to pass the grid upgrade bill as is, and forget petty politics that caused it to be killed, and the other side says that the problem is the other sides unwillingness to remove the Arctic drilling portion that caused it to be killed in the beginning. In the end, I am against drilling in the Arctic, and for upgrading the power system, and for anyone who agrees with both of these objectives.
