A common misnomer in the debate about CMP’s NECEC transmission corridor to deliver power from Quebec to Massachusetts is that CMP owns all of the land along the route. That isn’t true. This line would cross (and substantially impact) public reserve land, and the closed-door negotiations CMP engaged in with two administrations were a direct violation of the Maine Constitution. They are spending record amounts on flashy ads to convince Maine voters while holding court with Maine leaders behind closed doors and in violation of the law. Vote “yes” this November. ~ Michelle Stevens, Solon
