Most MHAs voted in favour of a potential new deal with Quebec over Churchill Falls…but the debate couldn’t end without a little drama

CBC Newfoundland Morning

The government's debate over the new Churchill Falls deal ended last night, but not without a little drama. Rather than vote on the potential new deal with Quebec, Progressive Conservatives stormed out of the House of Assembly. The Tories have demanded more independent oversight of the deal, and they weren’t satisfied with a government plan to task the consumer advocate with that oversight. CBC reporter Darrell Roberts was in the House for the vote last night.
