Last month, Emera Inc. signed a deal that will see it acquire Canadian Utilities Ltd. and Atco, which owns a controlling stake in Canadian Utilities, while Atco’s industrial services business will be spun out as a new public company to its existing shareholders that will be led by Atco CEO Nancy Southern. It says the new company will be focused on housing, defence and other investments, including ports and retail energy. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 6, 2026.
