Hydro QC-NB Deal: Good For Us...

The only problem is this will probably embitter relations with NB down the line, which affects all other issues, as the NFLD case demonstrates. I know NB is poor, but $10B is relatively little in govt terms, and when you amortise that over time re. lost revenue...oh, and rates will be frozen for five years? Well, um, other than bad enviro-econ policy, whee! I'm glad our negotiators are way better than everyone else's apparently. All I can say to NBickers is we promise to be gentle...
