On all the major networks and online, I have been seeing many advertisements for the transmission line Hydro-Quebec and Central Maine Power want to run through our state. These political ads seem to be purposely using pretty pictures, psychological tactics and half-truths to try and confuse voters. Hydro-Quebec and CMP have already spent more than $9 million to try and gloss over the truth and confuse Mainers. But the facts are clear. The transmission corridor would incur long lasting damage to that region of our state. The millions Hydro-Quebec is spending amount to interference in our elections by a utility solely owned by a foreign government. ~ Maria Strickland, Bangor
