Windstorm Leaves Tens of Thousands Without Power

A major windstorm hit eastern Ontario and western Quebec, leaving tens of thousands without power due to downed trees and branches. Crews are racing to restore electricity, though remote areas like Kingston, Tweed, and Perth may take longer—restoration times could shift as damage assessments unfold. Hydro One urges extreme caution: stay ten meters away from downed lines and report them immediately. Meanwhile, Quebec’s Outaouais region mobilized nearly 90 teams, with reinforcements from Saguenay and the lower St. Lawrence. Hydro-Québec expects most outages resolved soon, but some may linger into Sunday. Families are enduring the dark, but crews are working tirelessly to bring power back safely and swiftly.
