"I'm glad I invited my mother"

I don't have a lot to say today. My heads still kinda spinning from trying to digest all the information out there. The more I read the MOU, the more I shake my head.

To BH, I guess Hydro quebec power was recently given a thumbs up by the FERC, so now Obama can use it as part of his "clean energy". So much for that.

I see the NB Power assets are about 4.7 Billion according to the annual report. So not much profit there for the NBGov. Just a bunch of unfunded decommisioning costs.


I was reading about the HQ layoffs today. 250 in a call center. Seen some more links where there was a walkout planned at another station. And there were two fatalities at another hydro station. So HQ's having an eventful week. Seems there was a couple of deaths a few years ago at another hydro station. Sounds like a great company to work for. Oh yeah, surplus employees may not have that luxury.

One last note. I heard that Graham gave a speech at a Salmon Federation dinner last nite. You know, one of those $150 dollar a plate fundraisers. Apparently at the end of the speech, only one person applauded. Shawn was later overheard saying, "I'm glad I invited my mother"

Have a great weekend!!
