Churchill Falls (Government of Newfoundland and Labrador)<\/p>\n

The Atlantic Chamber of Commerce is joining with its counterparts in Quebec to urge the NL and Quebec governments to move forward with expansion of the Upper Churchill. <\/p>\n

The PC government put the MOU on hold while a panel conducted a review of the deal to ensure it is in the best interest of Newfoundland and Labrador. <\/p>\n

That report was delivered to government on Thursday and the premier has promised to release its findings to the public. <\/p>\n

An open letter from the Atlantic and Quebec chambers of commerce on moving forward with the Upper Churchill and Gull Island (submitted)<\/p>\n

The chambers have written an open letter asking that work on the project move forward. <\/p>\n

President and CEO of the Atlantic Chamber of Commerce, Rhonda Tulk Lane says major projects need scrutiny, but prolonged uncertainty carries its own risks. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe also need a clear path forward on what\u2019s next so investors can make decisions, so businesses can plan. So\u2026it\u2019s a balancing act of digging in, scrutinizing it, and not having uncertainty\u201d and delays that go on too long.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Churchill Falls (Government of Newfoundland and Labrador) The Atlantic Chamber of Commerce is joining with its counterparts…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":649471,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[45,49,48],"class_list":["post-649470","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-business","tag-ca","tag-canada"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=649470"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649470\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/649471"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=649470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=649470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=649470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
