Considering the fact that Hydro-Quebec stands to make $12.4 billion off of this contract with Massachusetts, I would urge my fellow Mainers to take their claims with a grain of salt, or in accordance with their ads, with a drop of rain. Here are some important facts about this project: Nearly every major environmental group opposes the project because the climate benefits aren’t real. The (many) ads we’re seeing from HQ, a company owned 100% by a foreign government, would be illegal in Quebec. HQ, and their partner CMP, have fought hard to keep information about the source of the power a secret. This is a bad deal for Maine. ~ Linda Lee, Bowdoin
