🇨🇦 PQ wants Churchill Falls cash with a 1927 grievance stapled to it

So the Parti Québécois now wants to reopen a modern energy deal by invoicing Newfoundland and Labrador for a border ruling from 1927. That is the level of constitutional unseriousness on offer. Pascal Paradis says Quebec will discuss updating the 1969 Churchill Falls arrangement, but only if compensation for losing Labrador is folded in, as reported. Translation: sell power today, relitigate empire-era maps tomorrow.

The absurd part is that Ottawa keeps flirting with a National Electricity Strategy while the country is held together by provinces bargaining like rival statelets. Hydro-Québec wants to double electricity production by 2050, Newfoundland already tore up one MOU in 2024, and now the PQ is openly treating national infrastructure as leverage for separatist mythology. This is what sovereignty erosion looks like inside Canada itself: weak federal stewardship, regional grievance rackets, and energy policy hijacked by politicians who would rather cosplay nationhood than build one coherent country.
