I have to admit that I was disappointed in the tour.  When I was a kid I
visited the plant on the American side and they let you walk down on the
actual floor and see operating equipment... they had one generator torn
down and you could see how the brushes were honeycombed to reduce skin
effect. (at 60 Hz!)  It was very, very cool.  Forty years later the 
American side was totally locked down and the Canadian plant had a tour
where you could look through a window and talk to someone who couldn't
answer any questions.
