(Rothesay Conservative MLA
Margaret Ann Blaney)
Margaret Ann Blaney, the Conservative MLA for Rothesay was also at the meeting. She tells CHSJ News, she finds it hard to believe that even though they were invited, MLA's Mary Schryer, Jack Keir or Premier Graham were a no show. Blaney adds it's disturbing to her the first Memorandum of Understanding took ten months to put together but the re-vamped proposal apparently only took days.
According to reports, the new MOU shows N-B Power would remain owned by the Province and the power and distribution systems are no longer for sale. The sale price drops from 4.75 to 3.2 billion dollars.
