All of Canada's power reactors are government owned, with about half of them operated by a private operator under long-term lease (Bruce Power) and the other half operated directly by provincial crown corporations. Additionally, essentially all of Canada's large hydroelectric facilities (gigawatt scale) are also owned and operated by provincial crown corporations. Some projects are simply too large with too long a payback period for private investment.
