Secret Path Week is a time to remember and honour the legacies of Gord Downie and Chanie Wenjack.
In 1966, 12-year-old Chanie Wenjack lost his life while attempting to return home after fleeing a residential school. His story remains a powerful reminder that reconciliation requires more than reflection. It requires action.
As Secret Path Week marks its 10th anniversary, Hydro One has renewed its partnership with the The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund for another five years, expanding access to learning opportunities and cultural resources that deepen understanding, encourage dialogue and inspire meaningful ReconciliACTION.

Meet Lumina, a future guide dog whose journey is supported through Hydro One's partnership with @CNIB. At just seven months old, Lumina is already helping raise awareness about the important role guide dogs play for Canadians who are blind, Deafblind or have low vision. The puppy-in-training recently attended CNIB Lake Joe Live in Muskoka, where she met guests and represented the CNIB Guide Dogs program. We'll be sharing more of Lumina's journey as she continues her training. Know more: https://t.co/kVJwXnAJm4.
Powered by Canadian partnership.
This year, a 254,000 pound Mobile Transformer Unit traveled 2,000 kilometres from Winnipeg to Orillia Transmission Station.
Built by PTI Transformers, Canada’s largest 100% Canadian owned transformer manufacturer and a long time Hydro One supplier, the unit is now in place as a critical backup for planned station upgrades.
The result: stronger grid resilience and reliable power for Orillia and Simcoe County now and for the future.
“Every transformer we build is designed and manufactured in Canada, by Canadians. Delivering this Mobile Transformer Unit to Orillia is a proud moment for our team and a reflection of the trust we've built with Hydro One over many years of working together.” – George Partyka, CEO, PTI Transformers.
Working with Canadian suppliers like PTI helps us invest locally and keep communities powered, safely and reliably.

Hydro One and five First Nations are now 50-50 partners in the Chatham to Lakeshore Transmission Line, the historic first transmission line delivered through Hydro One’s industry-leading First Nation Equity Partnership Model.
In this video, project partners reflect on a milestone 50/50 equity partnership and what it means for communities, stewardship, and future generations.
What started as a community conversation is becoming a reality.
During meetings with residents, community partners and local elected representative about the Merivale Transformer Station modernization project in Ottawa, a splash pad emerged as a priority for local families. Hydro One joined residents, community leaders and elected officials to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Medhurst Park splash pad in Ottawa's Tanglewood community.
"Supporting local priorities is an important part of how Hydro One works with the municipalities and communities that host our critical electricity infrastructure. Projects like this create lasting benefits for local residents." ~ Bonnie Hiltz, vice president, government and stakeholder relations.
Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the children who never returned home, survivors of residential schools, their families and communities.
At Hydro One, we recognize that reconciliation requires more than words. It calls for continued learning, relationship-building and meaningful engagement with Indigenous Peoples and communities.
Earlier this month, employees had the opportunity to hear from Indigenous author, broadcaster and storyteller Jesse Wente. Through powerful reflections on truth, storytelling and reconciliation, Jesse encouraged us to consider the role each of us can play in building a more inclusive and respectful future.
As we mark this day, we reflect on the lasting impacts of colonial policies and practices, deepen our understanding of Indigenous perspectives and reaffirm our commitment to ongoing learning, meaningful action and stronger relationships built on respect and trust.

Not long ago, many of the people in this photo had never climbed a tree. Now look at them. 🌳
This Forest Week, we're celebrating our forestry apprentices who began a rewarding journey to become Utility Arborists.
Taken earlier this year in Barrie, the photo captures forestry apprentices and trainers coming together after weeks of learning, growth and teamwork. Today, they're developing the skills needed to safely manage vegetation around powerlines and help keep customers across Ontario connected.
