Tagged Canadian; def is "an electric utility". Maybe it's just a bad def? Or maybe this is a specific company, and not dictionary material? —RuakhTALK 20:28, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
- My instinct says it's a poor version of our Canadian definition of hydro. If that's true, it could be speedily deleted as a "bad entry title". Mglovesfun (talk) 13:42, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
- The largest Canadian power utilities are Ontario Hydro (now divided into several companies of which Hydro One distributes the electic power to customers) and Hydro-Québec. Therefore the electric power is sometimes called hydro in Canada, uncapitalized. This entry looks like plain misunderstanding and should probably be deleted. A similar sense for the word Edison should probably be deleted as well. --Hekaheka 01:26, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
- Struck because the consensus is that it should be deleted (at Hydro, and kept at hydro). - -sche (discuss) 23:03, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
