In one of the campgrounds around Lake Superior back in 2008, they lost their 30 amp power. I was startled when our generator kicked on when the batteries fell to that certain level. When I opened the door to step outside, I could hear other generators running. It was just part of the Canadian ambiance.
What a load of rubbish :R - running gensets are no more
"part of the Canadian ambience" than it would be anywhere else. :S
Of course, if you're camping on an electric site, with others around you also on electric sites, and the park loses power for whatever reason you might expect a few gensets to start up
just as you would anywhere else. I live here, camp here as well as in many parts of the US, and could count on the fingers of one hand how often I might hear a genset running in any of our provincial or conservation area campgrounds.
