Que. Premier Says Lessard In Error On Job Priority
ae (CP) Premier Daniel Johnson says ‘“Hydro-Que- bec President Jens-Clacite Les- gard misled the public’ with his lication that Quebéc labor materials will get priority
at the mammoth Churchill Falls “power project: * “It is clear that Newfound- land has the preference and. it {s inexplicable that the ‘public was led in error,’ Mr. Johnson said in an interview on French- oe television Wednesday

eee
Tuesday Mr. Lessard had said that ‘‘for all practical purposes’” Queb:: would get. priority on labor and materials at the ‘La- brador project although New- foundiand manpower and mate- tials would receive oriority where such was “feasible an econdmic.””
Earlier Wednesday, before the.
premier contradicted Mr. Les- sard, Newfoundland Premier Jnev Smallwood said that’ if Quebec doesn't accept the fact th=t more than 90 per cent: of the jobs will be filled by New- found!snders ‘‘the deal is off.”
WOULD BE FAVORED
Mr: Johnson said that Mr. Less-rd’s statement was “inex. pli-able \and ~unexplained.” The letter of intent which made for-
mal the power deal between Hy- dro-Quebec and the British New- foundland Corp., Church- ill Fall’s developers, had stipu- lated- Newfoundland men and materials would get priority.
But he expected that because -of the -geographical location... of:|-. Churchill. Falls and because of other factors, much of the bene- fit of construction will go to Quebecers.
