Premier John Horgan announced Wednesday measures brought in by BC Hydro to address the economic impacts of COVID-19 — including a universal one per cent reduction in rates for all customers.

Residential customers who have lost jobs or had wages reduced as a result of COVID-19 will receive a credit worth three times their average monthly bill over the past year. It will not have to be repaid.

Small businesses forced to close as a result of COVID-19 will have their April to June 2020 bills forgiven.

This is great for BC Hydro customers, but what about others who are serviced by Fortis BC, many of whom are small businesses trying to survive the current COVID-19 epidemic. 

Your customers need your help too! We are requesting that you provide some sort of relief for us as well!
