where does most of canada's electricity come from
Electricity sector in Canada Hydroelectricity accounted for 58% of all electric generation in Canada in 2007,[2][3] making Canada the world's second-largest producer of hydroelectricity after China.[4] Since 1960, large hydroelectric projects, especially in Quebec, British Columbia, Manitoba and Newfoundland and Labrador, have significantly increased the country's generation capacity. Canada is the world's sixth-largest producer of electricity generated by nuclear power, producing 97 billion kWh in 2013.[5] In Ontario, Canadian-designed CANDU nuclear reactors supplied more than half the provincial electricity demand in 2007.[3] In April 2014, Ontario became the first jurisdiction in North America to fully eliminate coal as a source of electricity generation.[6][7]
