Matt Jamieson, president and CEO of the Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation, (SNGRDC) sat down with CKRZ FM to discuss the SNGRDC and explain further the suspended Lake Erie Connector Project, being developed by ITC Holdings Inc.

CKRZ reached out to ITC Holdings for a comment and received an email from Doug Motley, Director, Grid Solutions at ITC Holdings Corp. saying they had nothing further to add that was already publicized and is available online, including in a recent earnings call.

In that earnings call, the company points out, "macroeconomic conditions relating to rising inflation, interest rates and foreign exchange impacted the viability of the project".

Had the project gone forward, the result would have increased market access and the ability to manage energy needs and give Ontario the capacity to respond to shifting supply and demand as well as outages and system planning requirements.
