City Anticipates Benefits of Lower Churchill Development

With the announcement that the Lower Churchill Falls project will go ahead, the City of St. John's is eagerly anticipating the benefits of the development. Mayor Dennis O'Keefe says the project will provide much needed economic stimulus and jobs. O'Keefe says the capital city will be the major beneficiary of the development, as it is a supply base and will contribute to many aspects of the project.
