Peer review request[edit]

I would appreciate any comments. How is my organization? Clarity? Is the article deep enough? Let's check the criteria:

Comprehensive - I think so.
Acurate - I have sources for statements and numbers, so I think I'm OK there.
Stable - Pretty nearly, I added the gas customers stuff and that's the last big change.
Well-written - That's my big concern. Is my prose "brilliant" or even readable?
Uncontroversial - I believe I've been neutral in describing the conflicts that the company faces.
Standards manual - Checking, but I don't yet see any glaring discrepancies.
Images - I need at least one more of the company logo, I'd like to get one of Limestone GS (plenty of pictures around but none that I can get into the PD, so far)
Length - I think it's about the right length. I suppose I could exhaustively list every CEO, but I find that sort of thing dull and I can't imagine it's of general interest - some MH CEOs may have their own articles, I should link them here.

I bet no featured article is ever the product of one editor...so I'd like to get some bold assistance here. Thanks,--Wtshymanski 22:08, 16 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Exports[edit]

Some factual edits

A US Presidential Permit regulates the construction and operation of cross-border transmission lines. US Export Permits are needed to send power out of the US. [1]
It is doubtful that the Canadian dollar is supported by power exports because power sales to the US are done in US dollars.

Origin and name[edit]

This article should be corrected. It states that Manitoba Hydro was created in 1961 as a result of a merger. This is not correct. The proper name of "Manitoba Hydro" formally remains "The Manitoba Hydro-Electic Board". Refer Dominion Bond Rating Service for verification.\\\\ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.205.241.254 (talk) 17:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

Is it just me or does this article read like it was written by a Manitoba Hydro staffer? If it wasn't it could still use a rewrite to achieve a neutral tone. Dougmcdonell (talk) 01:12, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I, at least, am not a Hydro staffer. What parts are too purple? --Wtshymanski (talk) 17:27, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
