The Premier is confident the proposed deal between NB Power and Hydro-Quebec is going to help push this province into self suffiency over the next 20 years.
Shawn Graham says residents will see significant savings through the deal, and future generations will be relieved of the debt burden.
Supply and Services Minister Ed Doherty says it's his responsibility to pay the energy bills for provincial buildings and the deal would save approximately $30 million dollars.
Graham says the province wants to hear from residents with any concerns or more information.
