i think we pay 6.5 cents but i don't remember fur sure. i think about 90% of b.c's power is from hydro-electric - there are a few large dams and then a number of smaller ones that many people aren't aware of. ex, the pulp mill in powell river has a dam that generates excess hydro that they sell to bchydro who then resells it - usually to the us for a huge profit.
i used one of those simple free programs on the net to approximate the tank electricity cost - our total bill is more than that of course. i could find that link and post it if anyone wanted to see it.
