M-412 Hydroelectric project

41st Parliament, 1st Session

Motion Text

That, in the opinion of the House, a loan guarantee provided by the federal government for the Lower Churchill hydroelectric projects—consisting of the Muskrat Falls hydroelectric generation facility, the Labrador Transmission Assets, the Labrador-Island Link, and the Maritime Link—will be an important and valuable step in advancing Canada’s clean energy agenda, as it will support an economically viable, regional energy project that will (a) provide economic benefits for the Atlantic region, which will benefit from a stable and sustainable electricity source for decades to come; (b) create environmentally-friendly electricity, with substantial greenhouse gas emission reductions through the displacement of power from coal-fired and oil electricity sources; and (c) create thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in economic growth.
