The provincial government is being told it should be doubling the capacity of some its key power transmission links.
The suggestion is coming from consultant Jeff Barnes of Stantec who recently completed a study on the issue.
He says it's important in terms of developing our energy business to be able to move power through to Quebec and Nova Scotia.
And Barnes says there's a real future opportunity for the province to tap into the central Canadian energy markets with a natural gas pipeline inter-connection through Quebec -- he was speaking to an energy conference here in the city.
