Reported first on reddit, parts of the Plateau and eastern Ville‑Marie are now in the dark.

If it’s something at the Berri substation the discourse is going to be something to behold.
Seems now, near 7, most of it is back.
Saturday morning, Radio-Canada reports on the blackout with a photo of, yes, the Berri substation.
Of course. Though if it was the case that a new substation would have prevented this then you’d expect Hydro would have said, or at least leaked, that.
It sounded pretty clear that a new substation is needed in western NDG/Côte St-Luc, though.
