Proof that Emera is in control

Below is an excerpt from Emera's response to the Massachusetts Clean Energy RFP July 2017. 
 
"Hydro-Québec’s current contractual access to energy from the Churchill Falls facility, through arrangements with Nalcor, expires in 2041. As the end of that contract draws closer, having Atlantic Link as an additional large-scale transmission path creates options for Massachusetts and the New England electricity system to secure cost-effective clean energy, including supply originating at Churchill Falls. Massachusetts has a unique opportunity to position the New England electricity system for future optionality by choosing Atlantic Link infrastructure in the 2017 Clean Energy RFP process."
 
So good to know that Emera is going to take the reigns of the Upper Churchill for the next generation of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. 
 
I wonder - should we expect CFLco to have something to say about this?
 
It also says:  " Nalcor is currently constructing the 824 MW Muskrat Falls generating station (scheduled in-service date of 2020)."
 
Is this correct also? 
 
Seems Emera has more information than the people of our province do. 
 
Why not have a peek at what Emera has in store for us. It is Emera that is running our energy system. I think Emera may be running the whole works. Of course we can't stop Muskrat "Premier" Ball - Emera won't let you.


I plan to contact the Massachusetts Clean Energy group and give them our side of the story. What Emera is saying is simply inaccurate or WE the people don't have a clue as to what's going on.
