Disaster in Canada! Over a million without power! Ice storm in Quebec and Ontario

More than one million customers without power as heavy storms hit Quebec and Ontario. Ontario and Quebec were hit by freezing rain and thunderstorms, causing widespread power outages for more than one million people. The storm disrupted daily life, and people were urged to stay home and avoid unnecessary travel. Quebec’s power utility said shortly after 2 a.m. that more than one million of its 4.5 million customers had no power, with much of the province under a freezing rain warning. The storm arrived on Tuesday night and continued into Wednesday morning, with power outages affecting many areas of Ontario and Quebec. The storm caused significant damage, and utility companies worked around the clock to restore power to affected communities. The freezing rain caused icy conditions on the roads, making driving dangerous. As a result, many schools and businesses were closed, and public transportation was disrupted. The storm also caused several flights to be canceled or delayed, adding to the chaos.
