MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • October 31, 2021
You acknowledge the question regarding whether the project actually reduces greenhouse gas emissions and decide “it’s impossible to say.” Not so! Hydro Quebec’s CEO, despite being willing to spend millions to get the project passed, refused to allow testimony under oath on this issue before Maine’s legislative committees. Did you ask yourselves “what are they hiding?” You note approval of the project by Maine’s DEP. Did you ask why no actual environmental assessment has ever been done similar to the one required when they tried to put a similar project through New Hampshire? Perhaps you should look at these vitally important issues somewhat closer than you seem to have done. ~ Ann Morrill, South Portland
