This monumental agreement replaces the 1969 Upper Churchill Contract, secures $1 billion annually for the next 17 years, and paves the way for Gull Island's development. With increased generation from Churchill Falls and meaningful partnerships with Indigenous communities, this collaboration between Newfoundland and Labrador and Quebec represents a significant step forward for the province and the country.
