Some Ottawa residents have been without power since May 21.

After the storm whipped through, I believe over 170K customers were without power.

That's not a time line I'd ever have considered possible in a major city in May.

Worst it's ever been, supposedly. Topped the 1998 ice storm and the tornado in 2018 for number of people in the dark.
