10 - The Oakville Beaver, Friday July 14, 2006 www.oakvillebeaver.com IMAGINE NO POWER FOR ONE HOUR. On August 14, 2003 at 4:20 PM a total blackout affected over 50 million people in Canada and the USA. Major centres like Toronto and New York remained powerless for days -- for some, a minor inconvenience and for others -- devastating consequences. Elevators remain motionless, televisions stared back blankly, traffic ground to a halt and slowly towns and cities were plunged into complete darkness. By midnight, many people realized how unprepared they were for a sustained blackout. A simple flashlight (and batteries) to light the way; a small radio to catch the news; and a corded phone to contact loved ones. Many believed the crisis would pass soon and everything would return to normal -- and it did after 3 days. Are you prepared for 3 days? CAN YOU IMAGINE A WEEK? Come into The Source By Circuit City and we'll get you ready for the next blackout. Shop online at www.TheSource.ca Offers end July 16, 2006 unless otherwise specified.
