David Alward Speaks About Point Lepreau


The debate rages on over who should pay for the cost over-runs for the refit at Point Lepreau. Energy Minister Jack Keir is looking for Ottawa to asume the cost over-run with Atomic Energy of Canada saying the timeline was never attainable. Conservative leader David Alward doesn't disagree but tells CHSJ News, Minister Keir has to assume some of the responsibility as well.
Alward says it's ludicrous to ask rate-payers to shoulder responsibility for this file and the Graham Government has to bring Ottawa and AECL to the table.
