Is it possible that the Canadian power generating stations are at least partially owned by Americans....or Brits or Dutch for that matter?  Just because the plant is in Canada doesn't mean that its ownership is completely Canadian.

It seems to me that the very important trade between Canada and the U.S. goes both ways to the benefit of both Canadians and Americans!
