Jay Grewal, who held the position for five years, now passes the reigns to Hal Turner, who will lead the crown corp until a new president and CEO is selected.

“One of the board’s most important responsibilities is to ensure we have the leadership in place to successfully guide Manitoba Hydro into the future and keep life affordable for Manitobans,” said Manitoba Hydro-Electric board chair Ben Graham.
