Generating power but flooding land loved by locals
After 11 weeks, the Site C dam reservoir in northeastern B.C. is now fully filled.
B.C. Hydro announced the process was complete on Nov. 7, having started in August.
One electricity generating unit has already started feeding into B.C.'s power grid, and another five are set to come online between now and the fall of 2025, increasing the province's power production capacity by an estimated eight per cent.
