Manitoba Hydro gains deregulation freedom to export power
Manitoba Hydro wins legislative approval for Bill 55 lifting its growth constraints and allowing private-style deals. The bill lets the Crown corporation expand exports to the United States, enter joint ventures, and form alliances while maintaining Crown status. Officials cite U.S. deregulation driving need for flexibility and warn that loss of export revenue could raise Manitoba rates. The debate drew NDP opposition and criticism of privatization talk amid a broader North American power market shift.
