Time-of-use prices off-peak Canada Day, and we’re closed July 1-2

On Canada Day, Thursday, July 1, customers on Time-of-Use electricity pricing will be charged off-peak prices for the electricity commodity portion of the bill.

Our office is closed on Thursday, July 1 and Friday, July 2. Most employees have been given July 2 off in recognition of the significant additional work that has gone in to managing essential utility services throughout the pandemic. In the event of a utility emergency, such as a gas smell, power outage or water main break, call our 24-hour emergency line at 613-546-1181. (Hydro One electricity customers in City west and east can call 1-800-434-1235. Enbridge customers can call 1-877-969-0999).
