Toronto facing massive outage from Midtown to ScarboroughBreaking: Toronto facing massive power outage from Midtown to Scarborough At the same time, you posted this the power was back. 25-minute outage. In New Brunswick, we don't panic until the power had been out for two hours. Even in winter. DontPanic It was mostly back online before you even posted this. Can you guys get any slower? This is becoming a regular thing. Doug Ford claimed there was a problem before the 2018 prov election and he would 'fix' it. This is fixed? And adding his pals into executive positions really made things sooooo much better.
