A 33.8B 魁北克-纽芬兰能源交易在魁北克2026年选举之前有崩溃的风险,除非很快完成。 A $33.8B Quebec-Newfoundland energy deal risks collapse before Quebec’s 2026 election unless finalized soon.

魁北克省与纽芬兰省和拉布拉多省之间一项33.8亿美元的能源交易草案,将提高魁北克水电公司对丘吉尔瀑布电力的支付和为重大扩建提供资金,如果在魁北克省2026年省级选举之前没有敲定,可能会面临风险。 经济部长克里斯蒂娜·弗雷谢特警告说。 A draft $33.8-billion energy deal between Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador, which would raise Hydro-Québec’s payments for Churchill Falls electricity and fund major expansions, could be at risk if not finalized before Quebec’s 2026 provincial election, Economy Minister Christine Fréchette warned. 该协议最初于2024年12月提出,旨在将费率提高到每千瓦小时6美分,并增加7 200兆瓦容量,以此取代1969年被视为有利于魁北克的合同。 The agreement, initially proposed in December 2024, aims to replace a 1969 contract seen as favorable to Quebec by increasing rates to six cents per kilowatt-hour and adding 7,200 megawatts of capacity. 纽芬兰和拉布拉多的新保守党政府质疑2026年4月的最后期限,称其为武断,并计划进行独立审查和公投。 Newfoundland and Labrador’s new Conservative government has questioned the April 2026 deadline, calling it arbitrary, and plans an independent review and public referendum. Fréchette强调,改变魁北克政府可能危及这项协议,敦促迅速采取行动。 Fréchette stressed that a change in Quebec’s government could jeopardize the deal, urging swift action. 前自由党政府预测这项协议在50年内会给纽芬兰省和拉布拉多带来超过2 250亿美元的收入。 The previous Liberal government projected the agreement could bring over $225 billion in revenue to Newfoundland and Labrador over 50 years.
