Nova Scotia Power announces a leadership transition, naming Chris Smith as its next president and chief executive officer. The company says his appointment is effective November 2, 2026, and he will succeed the current CEO.
BNN Bloomberg and the Financial Post both describe Smith’s current role as executive vice president for finance and commercial and note that he joined Nova Scotia Power in 2017. The Financial Post adds more context about the outgoing CEO, stating that Vivek Sood—who joined earlier this year—has decided not to continue in the role. Another Bloomberg item reiterates that Chris Smith will be the new president and CEO, but provides fewer additional details than the other sources.
