…The BC hydro website digs into this a bit. Essentially the province doesn’t have a problem with generating capacity. But distribution and grid will adapt in the normal course of maintenance and up keep going forward to adapt to the changing load in neighborhoods etc. They don’t see any issues going forward. I realize that this is not the case everywhere...

Yah for sure. Different areas have different challenges. But BC hydro is fairly indicative of most of Canada. Hydro Quebec has similar info on their website etc.
It’s a slow transition. I’m sure the various utilities will figure it out. Those that don’t will look like 3rd world entities. I’m sure they’ll want to avoid that. :).
