    Stephenville-Port au Port MHA Tony Wakeham wonders whether government is telling the whole story. The PC Leader hopeful was in Corner Brook last night for a meet and greet. He says the timing of the announcement by Equinor to delay the Bay du Nord project is very questionable, and he wonders if it was staged or planned. Wakeham says a decision like that isn't made overnight. He says government was involved in meetings talking about benefit agreements. Wakeham says he’s surprised  that the Premier was surprised by the announcement.
