Hydro-Quebec's Churchill Falls Docs Unredacted
Description
Hydro-Quebecs attempt to conceal 1960s documents related to the Churchill Falls hydro deal was recently thwarted by Quebecs access to information commission. The documents, requested by a university professor, were initially redacted, citing potential harm to ongoing negotiations with Newfoundland and Labrador. However, the commission ruled in favor of full release, deeming the secrecy a barrier to historical research and public policy analysis. The documents, which reveal secret pricing strategies, are expected to be released soon, potentially reigniting tensions between the provinces.
