Liberals say issue resolved
The Pakua Shipi First Nation in Quebec demanded a public retraction Thursday from Liberal MHA Lisa Dempster over comments she made regarding hiring practices at Muskrat Falls, while the Liberals say the dispute is resolved.
In a letter sent to the Cartwright-L’Anse au Clair MHA, Chief Denis Mestenapeo said Dempster made false statements about the Quebec Innu getting hired for the Muskrat Falls project because of their recent protests.
Dempster claims Quebec Innu got jobs as a result of protests, adding it is against the hiring protocol for the project.
