It was one supposed Canadian province that ripped off another Canadian province. In all truth Quebec is an independent country inside Canada. Premier Joey Smallwood of NFL and Labrador setup the Churchill Falls Hydro-Electric site in Labrador. When the generating site was nearing completion Quebec said no to NFL running power lines direct across Quebec. Instead of running the "long way around" Labrador and having to cross water. Quebec had NFL over a barrel with a generating plant but no market for years until power lines could be built years later. Quebec offered a deal which was slightly better than the generating station going broke. Quebec bought the power for cost from NFL and transported the power for sale to New York for a massive profit over the past few decades. If NFL needs the Churchill falls power that themselves generate. NFL has to pay the NY rate fro their own power they are giving away to Quebec. Pretty much an example of how Quebec rips off the rest of the nation. Quebec does have one export market cornered and that is stripper/dancers they supply all across Canada.
