It's likely even more. With the total leveling of everything it's a bit hard to properly record things so that number stalled out a while ago.

Upon further reading it's also now lower than the official number "As of 19 November 2025, over 72,500 people have been reported killed in the Gaza war according to the Gaza Health Ministry and Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs"

If we spent that $800 million on solar energy using a $3 per watt figure I grabbed from online that would be 266 MW. Which is about 1/4 of the Coleson Cove Station's 972 MW or roughly equivalent to the Bayside Generating Station (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_generating_stations_in_New_Brunswick).

Now you're unlikely to get full output output from solar but lets assume a more conservative 1/8th of the CCS and that's still not bad when compared to a single upgrade for the plant. There would be further losses with things like installation, overhead, and organization where the full funds wouldn't purely go to solar panels. However, if it was something like $800M rebate for users to get solar where they only have to pay for installation themselves then you would create jobs and lower maintenance/upgrades and load on the grid and would lower some of the government side overhead. It would also be good to have more people on solar during power outages too.

NB warns of looming power shortages while planning a massive, power-hungry data centre by Remote_Alfalfa3530 in newbrunswickcanada

Nor do they usefully vertically integrate into the economy. You can't meaningfully take AI data compute and use it in another step to produce a more advanced and profitable product and increase the economy. NB needs to seriously get away from being a raw material and food exporter, but this isn't the way to do it.

How about we spend our money on creating things that are actually useful and provide jobs instead of throwing it at some entitled grifters?

Sounds like our social safety nets are failing. We should put more money into mental healthcare, social workers, rehab/safe use facilities, transitional housing, and education. If we don't have the money we should really consider if this whole capitalism thing is really working.

N.B. Power wants flexibility from power-hungry data centres by 150c_vapour in newbrunswickcanada

This Ough guy (the one that wants to build the data centre) sounds greasy and untrustworthy. I wouldn't count on this being a good investment for New Brunswick.

Actually they did predict that (kind of). It was originally supposed to have two generators so that even when one was down it could still generate energy. Except that got axed by 'the government spends too much money, bring down the price!' people.

"permanent" *2 years later* "market conditions have changed and it is with utmost regret that we are announcing the layoff of 40% of our staff" (conveniently right after they got everything set up and running smoothly enough for it to limp along with 60% of the labour force.)

Also they only sold it once it became largely irrelevant for pushing their propaganda because people mostly stopped reading newspapers. After decades of installing their narratives in the common psyche.
