Hydro-Quebec has announced that all but one of the power outages caused by last week’s ice storm have been repaired.
The electric utility says there is still one outage affecting about four customers that requires extensive repairs.
The utility reported this morning that a few hundred of its customers were without power, but the outages were not related to the April 5 ice storm.
On Wednesday, there were still 4,500 customers without power, including more than 3,100 in Montreal.
