Canada’s National Energy Board recommends “MMTP”

This, hot off the press in an email update — it’s not over, but it’s getting closer, the final decision is yet to be made by the Governor in Council – press is below:

National Energy Board Reasons for Decision completed and released

The National Energy Board has completed and released their Reasons for Decision (PDF, 2.1 MB) recommending to the Governor in Council that a certificate should be issued for the Project. It is available for your review.

[emphasis added] Here’s their “Document Library” page.

And in the news, note both these headlines say “approves” but that’s not correct, it should be “recommends” and should note it takes further action:

NEB approves Manitoba-Minnesota power line; landowners could fight decision in court: lawyer

NEB approves Manitoba Hydro’s proposed link to Minnesota
