The Manitoba government has appointed former Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall as the new commissioner of the Manitoba Hydro review.
The review is looking into the decision-making process on the Keeyask Generation Project and Bipole III.
“This review will look into timing issues, prior government directions, planning, approval and oversight issues, and the large-scale cost and financial implications these projects have for Manitoba Hydro and Manitoba ratepayers,” said Crown Services Minister Jeff Wharton.
The review is expected to be completed by the end of October 2020.
Brad Wall served as the premier of Saskatchewan from 2007 until 2018. He now works as a special advisor for the law firm Osler, Hoskin and Harcourt LLP.
