FYI!!!!

Did you know that the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) helps Canadians with severe, prolonged impairments reduce their income tax?

You may be eligible for the DTC if a medical practitioner certifies that you have a severe and prolonged impairment in 1 of the categories, significant limitations in 2 or more categories, or receive therapy to support a vital function. The DTC can also open access to additional financial supports like the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP).

Hydro is issuing a POWER WARNING in effect Saturday morning, January 24, for the island. Customers are asked to CONSERVE electricity. Due to ongoing frazil ice issues at our Bay d'Espoir hydro plant and high power demands, we are asking that all customers on the island conserve their electricity use to help maintain system stability.

Customers can help conserve by:
• Limiting use of hot water and appliances (dishwasher, clothes washer, dryer)
• Turning off unnecessary lighting
• Turning down heat in rooms that are not in use

Our teams, along with divers and specialized equipment, continue to work hard to remove ice in Bay d'Espoir. We'll continue to keep you updated.
