I would like to provide a concrete example. In Quebec, Hydro Quebec or Gaz Métro supply natural gas to private homes or businesses. Hydro Quebec must purchase meters certified by Measurement Canada. Correct me if I am mistaken. These meters are installed at each property.
Am I to understand that it is up to Hydro Quebec to provide proof, every two years, that these meters are up to standard? Hydro Quebec is therefore responsible for proving that these meters are in compliance with Measurement Canada's requirements, or perhaps that is not its responsibility? Is it Measurement Canada that takes care of verifying if the meters are to standard?
