Another Muskrat Falls sceptic

Add talk show host Randy Simms to the pile of people who now appreciate that the Lower Churchill announcement wasn’t about a deal to get the thing done.

His column in the Saturday Telegram (not online) couldn’t have been any plainer:

Premier Danny Williams did much the same thing, declaring, "Today will go down in history as the day that finally eclipses that day back in
1969 when the Upper Churchill Contract was signed."

Really?

I think the spectacle we saw at the term sheet signing was more
political than practical. It was done for the benefit of the home
audience.

And it only took a couple of weeks.
