Excellent point you are making. As a Newfoundlander I have been exposed to the issue for awhile. Newfoundland and Labrador got a very bad deal when it negotiated the Upper Churchill River, Labrador hydro deal back in the 1960s. No one knew the cost of energy would sky rocket and we did not get the needed financial help from Ottawa. I am not blaming Quebec, they negotiated a good deal for them and Hydro Quebec engineers helped to make it all possible.

The new Lower Churchill proposal is looking at what is known as the 'Anglo-Saxon route'. It would transport power to the island of Newfoundland by underwater cable and from there to Nova Scotia by cable. It would be expensive but with good markets and high energy costs in the Maritimes, Ontario, and the Northeastern US it would be quite feasible.

Of course this would only be done if a deal could not be worked out with Quebec.

I guess the difference between a feminist and a radical feminist is radicals blame men globally.
