Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Danny Williams reveals that it will take his latest combat with Quebec over hydroelectric power to the United States and seeks to increase its energy talks with possible Maritime partners.

Quebec's environmental allegations against insolvent AbitibiBowater witnessed a stay by a Quebec judge, which eradicated a likely stumbling block in the path of the company's restructuring process.

It has reportedly witness defeat in two cases against AbitibiBowater in Quebec courts since the company's assets in Grand Falls-Windsor were expropriated.

Williams was seen angered on Wednesday when Quebec's energy regulator annulled Newfoundland and Labrador's accusation that it was being treated in a bias way by Hydro-Québec in its bid to obtain access to the Quebec grid for the gigantic Lower Churchill project.

"[Quebec] is not following the rules that they are forced to follow in the United States of America," Williams posted to the legislature. "So they are doing [that on] one side of the border and shafting Newfoundland and Labrador on the other side of the border."

Newfoundland and Labrador is uncovered to be in plans to appeal against the regulator's decision, although Williams cited that going back to the regulator itself would be of no use.

"Obviously a dead-end street." He said court challenges are likely.
