The scale of hydropower in QC is absolutely staggering. Even decades after the last major dam was finished, they still get >90% of their power from hydroelectric with very little other sources.
Fun fact, the dam reservoirs are so large that they actually caused a slight climate change effect causing harsher winters in nearby parts of the province.
