As for 'Hydro', I noticed this when I first arrived in Canada, the buses in Vancouver were called 'Hydro buses'. When I asked people in work, why they were called that, no one knew!
They were called that because they were operated by BC Hydro.
Gary Haupt...3599...my BC Hydro employee number in '72.
Many at work knew that BC Hydro operated the buses, but they had no idea why an electricity company would have a word for water in their name. I have to admit though, that many did not know that 'hydro' related to water.
I think I finally caught on about two weeks after I'd been here!
