MEOW US TO SHED SOME EIGHT ON THE
UPCOMING CHANGES IN THE EIECTRICITY INDUSTRY.
You may or may not have heard about it, but Ontario's electricity industry will be open to competition in the year
2000. So how will it affect you? It means quite simply that you'll soon be able to shop around for the best service and the
• best price from a number of different power suppliers. As part of these changes, Ontario Hydro will become two
completely separate companies: Ontario Power Generation. responsible for generating power and Ontario Hydro
Services Company. which will look after delivery, retail sales and service. An Independent Electricity Market Operator will
be established to ensure reliability of the system. Experience shows that increased competition brings with it better prices
as well as new and improved services and technologies. And with more choice out there in the market, the power will
truly be yours. For a brochure with more information, visit our website at www.hydro.on.ca or call 1-888-927-4477.
