Sometimes it’s necessary to schedule service interruptions so that we can perform system maintenance and ensure continued, reliable services to our customers. Other times, unforeseen events like weather, system damage, or accidents cause emergency utility disruptions that we can't plan for.

Current and planned outages


If your outage is not listed, or if you have new information to share, report it to us by calling 613-546-1181, 24/7. Always call and never use email or social media to report a utility emergency.
