AS of a few minutes ago on MSNBC they said the power problem started in Canada. I came to this conclusion several hours ago.
The entire grid for the North East plus Ohio, etc. is tied into Canada, specifically the Hydro Electric Project in James Bay. Most of the North Eastern power companies, etc. buy a lot of their power from there because it is so cheap. They haven't really built a lot of new power plants since James Bay came online. If James Bay, mainly, and other hydro plants in Canada are knocked out there will not be any way the Power companies in the North East, etc. will be able to replace that source and there will have to be rolling blackouts, etc. for a very long time until James Bay came back online. There is nothing that can be done anytime soon to correct that regardless. The U.S. government would be absolutely powerless.
