Not Churchill Falls
The Premier of New Brunswick is doing something very interesting, namely, going back in time:
“Premier Williams and I have been working together on the development of the Churchill Falls project, which is the cleanest form of renewable energy,” Graham said during the news conference.Premier Graham may also be working with other leaders on other projects which have already happened. Maybe he's working on the Panama Canal, the St. Lawrence Seaway, and the Mesabi Range.
So-called "Churchill Falls", of course, is already so-called "developed", and has been for over thirty years. To the extent that they are "working together" on anything, Graham and Williams are doing so with regards to the so-called Lower Churchill, which is not "Churchill Falls", any more than Fredericton is Saint John.
And, Michael Tutton, no matter how much the Canadian Press is convinced otherwise, really, seriously:
A study by the Economic Research and Analysis Division of the Newfoundland and Labrador government and published last year estimated that the cost of developing the Lower Churchill Falls sites could be between $6 and $9-billion, depending on the development option chosen.there is no such place as "Lower Churchill Falls"!
There is a so-called Lower Churchill project under consideration. It would involve the so-called "development" of Gull Island Rapids, and possibly Muskrat Falls, on the lower so-called Churchill River.
Not "Lower Churchill River", as capitalization implies a proper name; there is no such place.
Ditto the non-existent "Lower Churchill Falls".
It doesn't exist. Stop pretending it does.

There seems to be much confusion. The NOva Sxcotians have lately taking to writing in the Chronically Horrid about something called Newfoundland Power looking to develop the Lower Churchill.
Surely Stan Marshall will find this a surprise.
