Entire Board Of Manitoba Hydro Resigns

The entire board of Manitoba Hydro resigned earlier this morning.

 

Sanford Riley, the now former chair, said that the board and the province couldn’t agree on several issues.

 

He said that they had been attempting to meet with the Premier for over a year to resolve a number of issues, including Hydro’s relationship with Indigenous peoples and finances, but have not to been able to have meaningful dialogue.

 

Riley said the last straw was when the government told the board that they were going to remove him as the chair.

 

He said that after that announcement they determined that it was necessary to resign.
