The former executive vice president and chief legal officer of Hydro One, one of Canada’s largest electric utilities, is returning to Gowling WLG.
Paul Harricks, a partner and former leader of the firm’s energy and infrastructure groups, has joined the Toronto office as counsel in the energy group. When he joined Hydro One, the largest electric utility in the province of Ontario, in 2019, he said he had committed to stay for five years. At Hydro One, he worked on complex governance, policy, strategic, regulatory, stakeholder, legal, and ESG matters, Gowling said.
