Premiers Race to Finalize Churchill Falls Deal | Canada News
About this episode
Premiers are racing to finalize a deal over the Churchill Falls power project amid political pressures and time constraints.
Premiers Tony Wakeham and Christine Fréchette are racing against time in Prince Edward Island to finalize a new deal over the Churchill Falls power project — a critical energy asset whose old agreement has failed. With Quebec’s election looming, critics like Fred Hutton warn they’re losing precious time and risking retroactive payments, while Wakeham insists on public approval and a measured approach — even as the absence of hydro company heads adds complexity. The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
