ONTARIO, QUEBEC TO SIGN ELECTRICITY DEAL
Ontario and Quebec will sign a new seven-year electricity agreement today when the two governments hold a joint cabinet meeting in Toronto. The Canadian Press has learned that the deal will see Ontario import up to two terawatt hours of electricity from Quebec each year, enough to power a city the size of Kitchener. It’s also expected to save Ontario’s electricity system about $70 million in costs over the seven years.
