U.S. LOBBY CAMPAIGN WELL WORTH THE MONEY - PREMIER #SKPOLI #YQR #YXE Saskatchewans Premier says the over three million dollars paid to U.S. law firm Nelson Mullins Riley and Scarborough is money well spent. The funds have been paid out for lobbying campaigns in Washington which deal with country of origin labeling, the Keystone Pipeline and other energy programs like the clean-coal project at Boundary Dam. Premier Brad Wall says its part of a plan to promote Saskatchewan interests in the states, something he says wasnt being done under previous governments. Wall says he is confident there are no quid-pro-quo payments going to groups or individuals approached on the provinces behalf. The opposition N-D-P says the steep three million dollar price-tag has seemingly done very little for Saskatchewan.
