Wdym, electricity distributor? I thought hydro Québec handles 100% of the distribution too. Is this something new?

Hydro-Québec is vertically integrated.

I'm in Ontario where the situation is different. We have a quasi-deregulated market with local electricity distribution companies aka LDCs.

Ahh makes sense! Is HQ a player in the Ontario market? A part from electricity export that is.
