I'll make final say on some of the app when the full RP is launched when I'm not a particularly lazy cunt (I did just get back from my dad's birthday party, also half Christmas). But some particular comments:

We're still open.

I'm pretty sure the official demonym is Quebecois, but that's semantic.

My real issue would be the reliance of hydro-power. Really when I launched this RP I was expecting at most electricity would be a rarity on account of the lack of availability in resources, both in running shit and maintaining it with parts.

For the case of hydro-electric the whole system could fall apart rather quickly if something like O-ring seals break and create leakages r cause parts to grind lowering the efficiency or life-expectancy of parts. While a lot of small things can be handled on site or jury-rigged (you could probably use leather as a considerably worse version of vulcanized rubber o-rings), once the big parts of something like turbines fail then the hydro-power dam itself fails, it may not happen all at once but over time there'll be severe drops in efficiency as turbines fail in sequence, and these are giant machines that aren't built on site and there's no infrastructure there to do so; in a post-industrial, post-collapse society there may not be any turbines in mint condition worth obtaining.

Similarly this applies for most of everything else. Major oil producing areas are under a thick carpet of ash and the real supply of gas and oil for making the important industrial components are gone. The world now should be at a position of prioritizing certain jobs. One way to look at the world now is: what would be accomplished in a 18th or early 19th century way, and with equivalent tech?

So I'm going to ask either the importance of hydro-electric is struck, or I have some assurance that the system is failing now it's coming to the end of its life with minimal maintenance.
