Nfld's desperate need for Lower Churchill Power found.
1. Use the revenue from Oil to develop & distribute 'clean electricity' to the island of Newfoundland.
2. Manufacturing Jobs on the island of Newfoundland for when their Oil is all gone.
3. Why the island of Newfoundland Manufacturing first, using Labrador Hydro Electricity?
4. Why not Manufacturing in Labrador first since we are the risk takers (Happy Valley Goose Bay/Mud Lake)and the adjacent ones on this Mighty Grand River?
I'll answer the questions with another question; What else could save the Rock & least keep the mother's sons that are already there & not yet born on the island?
Note: The most respectable thing they could have done would be to set up some manufacturing in Labrador 'first' before taking Labrador's future away. Newfoundland Government could have started with: (a)enticing industries to come here & use the 300mw already reserved for us from the Upper Churchill. (b)They could have had manufacturing ready to run, with their operations ready for when Lower Churchill power came on stream in 2016.

Sincere Nalcor & Gov? LOL
We the people of Labrador are not that hard to convince that this proposed Lower Churchill project is a good one for the BigLand.
What Long-Term-Benefits justifies this proposed Lower Churchill Project for Labrador? Name them, 1,2,3,4,5,6 so on......
Nalcor & NL Government should show Labrador an official list of reputable companies they have enticed to be ready to roll in 2016 when the first power from Muskrat Falls comes on stream. I'm sure they could offered them a more then fair deal on electrical rates just for the long term jobs they would create alone?
*** i.e. ONE SCENARIO MAY LOOK LIKE THIS ***
---COMPANY #1----------Company #2--------Company #3

Hydro Need===-?-....Hydro Need==-?-.....Hydro Need =-?-
Local Jobs====-?-.....Local Jobs==-?-.....Local Jobs==-?-
Impact=======-?-.....Impact====-?-.....Impact======-?-
Now the next step might be to have the CEO's & Directors of these companies offer a presentaion at the Environmental Assessment Hearings & be open to questions from the Panel, Nalcor Energy & the audience.
This presentation would be extremely interesting considering the fact that Labrador already has 300mw of Upper Churchill Power that they cannot access.

Dunderdale Disagrees(Labrador Wins-?-)
YOU DECIDE!
-------------
Here and Now Late Night - February 25, 2011
Premier Kathy Dunderdale is defending the idea of a federal loan guarantee to develop the Muskrat Falls Hydro Project.
Dunderdale was in Happy Valley Goose Bay today (Feb 25,2011) meeting with elected officials at the Combined Councils.
Yesterday (Feb 24,2011)Labrador's MP Todd Russell said he opposed the Federal Loan Guarantee because he said the project won't benefit the people of Labrador.
Dunderdale disagrees. It absolutely does benefit Labrador in that it helps facilitate(make it easier to bring about) construction of Muskrat Falls. Ha, ha Muskrat Falls will provide energy, much needed clean, green energy, ha to the 'PROVINCE' but it also provides great opportunities for industrial development in Labrador.
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Will let see: The federal loan guarantees helps make it easier to bring about the construction of Muskrat Falls of which Labrador does not want. We don't want it, mainly because nearly zero benefits for us and the negatives outweigh the benefits by, lets say 99-1.
2. "Will provide energy, much needed clean, green energy, ha to the province". To where? "The province". A careful choice of words, don't you think so? Not Labrador, but the province. Is that the province they speak of in the media, from St.John's to Port au Basques?
3. "but it also provides great opportunities for industrial development in Labrador" Thats a big one but where is the evidence for that, pray tell? First of all. How can there be industries for Labrador from Muskrat Falls when there is absolutely no hydro power slated to come off that proposed power grid for Labrador? Go figure?
Will,there it is folks, not the official government document of positive benefits from a Muskrat Falls,Lower Churchill development I was looking for, but a list none the less, a very small one for sure.
