Some provinces such as Quebec, Manitoba, Newfoundland & Labrador, and the Yukon produce more than 90 percent of their electricity from hydro. The Canada government has put a unique program into place, the $1 billion Sustainable Development Technology Canada fund. SDTC is a not-for-profit foundation that finances and supports the development and demonstration of clean technologies.”
