Hydro Quebec Worker

This Hydro Quebec worker was more than happy to answer all my questions about what he was doing, as I was walking to class last week. I asked him what he was doing going underground and he taught me all about how the underground power lines where gaining popularity in Montreal in order to improve the landscape and make the city a safer place in case of high winds and storms. He told me that almost everything will be underground eventually, even the transformers. The gentleman in the picture told me that it was very expensive for the government to put all the lines underground, otherwise it would all be done already.
