A group of Brock University students say their utility company and property manager are “taking advantage” of a taxpayer-funded program meant to help low-income households in Ontario cope with high hydro bills.

"Planning regarding repair work is underway; however, we have no timelines on when that will commence," said Enbridge in a statement Saturday.
