On Tuesday Innu Nation was vocal about its disappointment once again, saying Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier Andrew Furey "betrayed the Innu people." Innu Nation agreed to the sanctioning of the Muskrat Falls project in the 2008 Tshash Petapen (New Dawn) Agreement and the 2011 IBA. Innu Nation said it repeatedly requested information about how the rate mitigation deal could affect its IBA, but added it was shut out. Innu Nation is calling on Furey and Trudeau to reconsider the Muskrat Falls agreement and do three things:Provide immediate access, by Aug. 6, to the detailed financial modelling for the Muskrat Falls project, which is necessary for the Innu Nation to begin assessing the impacts of the agreement on its IBA. She said the provincial government has communicated that with the Innu Nation and "remains open and available to discussions with the Innu Nation."
