Power outage at Quebec seniors home moving forward despite pleas for delay

Описание: A planned Hydro-Québec outage affecting some 1,600 residents, including a seniors’ home, will go ahead Wednesday despite pleas to delay amid the extreme heat.

Staff and families from the Wellesley seniors residence in Pointe-Claire, Que., say they’re worried for the health and safety of the facility's 100 residents, including those with mobility issues who aren’t able to leave the building to cool down elsewhere.

Hydro-Québec says the work is crucial and can’t be postponed.
