Tens of thousands of Ontarians are still without power today as Hydro One crews continue “working around the clock” to get the lights back after last week’s ice storm left homes and businesses across the province in the dark.
Hydro One announced early April 6 that the number of customers affected had decreased to 69,000 as crews worked to resolve the extended outages caused by the ice storm. However, by evening, the number of outages had risen to more than 80,000.
