Gaz Métro is an energy company in Quebec and one of the largest natural gas distributors in Canada. It owns energy companies in the United States as well. ==History== The company was founded in 1955 as the Corporation de gaz naturel du Québec ("Natural Gas Corporation of Quebec"). Formal operations began in 1957, when the company acquired the gas operations that Hydro-Québec acquired with the 1944 takeover of Montreal Light, Heat & Power, an electric and gas utility. Following its acquisition, the company converted operations from a manufactured gas system to one that distributes natural gas. The company would become Gaz Métropolitain in 1969. In 1985, the company expanded its service area with the acquisitions of Gaz Inter-Cité Québec (serving eastern Quebec) and Gaz Provincial du Nord (serving the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region). The company became a subsidiary of a new company called Noverco, in which the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec and Soquip were major investors. Later investors would include GDF Suez and Enbridge. In 2003, the company shortened its name to its present name, Gaz Métro. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gaz Métro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
