Our Hydro

02 November 2016

Did you know your power is at risk?
Toronto Hydro is 100% publicly owned, giving us the electricity we rely on to power our lives.
Now Toronto City Council is considering selling it, which means private investors will be in charge. We will lose public control, resulting in higher rates and less reliable service.
Tell your city councillor to keep the lights on and keep our bills affordable.
Selling Toronto Hydro will cost us more in the long run.
3 out of 4 Toronto voters oppose it because they know:

  • Studies show electricity costs more when private investors are involved.
  • When your power goes out, Toronto Hydro gets it back on fast, because being publicly-owned means being publicly accountable.
  • Toronto Hydro is key to building a green electricity future with reliable power for a growing city. If it is privatized, profit margins will come first.

Tell your councillor – Keep Toronto Hydro Public!
