@hydroquebec your operation is becoming a joke. I am, once again, without power for majority of the morning due to equipment issues. This is happening on a REGULAR bases. Are you running on 1950s machinery? Why every other month there is a wide spread issue with you?

LULZ if anybody is bored I’m now taking bets on when @hydroquebec will actually fix my invoice. It’s been 9 months, since my bill showed a jump from $35 monthly to...$505 monthly. I’m told to just uhhh ignore it (and all the calls for overdue balances), they’ll get to it soon. https://t.co/ALHcp5uDZR

Umm I'm pretty sure what #Maine is doing about that would be letting @cmpco build a disputed power line through our beautiful north woods to bring wicked dirty hydropower from Canada's #HydroQuebec to.... M***achusetts.
Seems like that'll help. 🤬

@juju2143 Sort of, but the danger is that if consumption is too high, Hydro Quebec has to buy power from the US, and those sources aren't always renewable.
Usually this can be a problem in winter with heating.

Finally it’s on the @hydroquebec map! Doesn’t say why there’s an outage. Wonder if it’s one of the three construction sites nearby 🤨
Doesn’t help when working from home!

@hydro_customer Thanks. My street is covered by 3 outages on your map. 1 says power will be restored by 4, other by 4:15 & last one is a “major” outage saying teams are waiting for instructions to restore power safely. What instructions are awaited for & how long does that usually take?

@Gabriel_Retta @mtlgazette @BeisJim The problem is upstream on Ottawa River at #HydroQuebec Carillon Dam at Pointe Fortune. They wait too late to release water buildup behind #dam, then open sluice gates to release huge am***ing water, creating pulses & #floods in #Montreal. Saw it happen in person 28 April 2019. https://t.co/7TYGjSt6LW

@CBCPolitics I hope its shut down so the public feels the impact of life without fossil fuels. Ontario cities already want to shut down Nat Gas plants, let's speed up the process. The west will stick to what works and not unreliable solar panels, windmills and scraps from Hydro Quebec.

East Hereford is located in the very scenic Hall River valley.
Hydro Quebec wanted to run M***achusetts mega-power-line down the middle of this, but too much opposition from the locals in NH.

@hydroquebec @CanadianPM @JustinTrudeau @francoislegault Also in case anyone gets the wrong idea I am very much pro-tax and have no complaint with the income taxes I pay
I do take issue with having to give more of my money to pay for what? Why does the govt get money via sales tax from this? &Yes I already explained basic CAN sales tax

@tomadamsenergy @bouchecl @JeannotVolpe @hydroquebec Yup, the very one who was not content with an economy entirely leveraged to the price of a single commodity, oil, so he needed to double down with an ***et that made sense only in a world of dear fossil fuel prices, which ended up costing twice as much and counting.

@hydroquebec Yes @hydroquebec I am well aware of how sales taxes work in general and in QC. I did not say you "take" them I said we pay them on your essential service, &ofC that's up to the QC & Canadian govt. The issue is we have no choice but to get electricity from you but thanks for that.

@tomadamsenergy @Energie_NB @hydroquebec This is true. Mactaquac must be fixed and Lepreau will need to be replaced in less than 20 years. Everybody knew it back then. And Danny did what he did.
Now, how do we fix this (and NL's) mess? That's the tough one.

@Bell_Support The lack of answer makes it clear that @Bell only uses their CRM for upselling and account retention. When even a crown corporation such as @hydroquebec has better outage communication than a privately owned telecom company, maybe it's time to switch to a provider which cares.
