Until Tuesday, Manning was essentially unkown to the world of Newfoundland and Labrador politics, but that changed when Premier Paul Davis appointed her to cabinet. <\/p>\n
The official government news release talked about her legal background extensive provincial, national and international experience and her official biography made special mention of graduate studies at the University of Calgary. <\/p>\n
Manning studied at Memorial University and then graduated from law school at Dalhousie in 2004, before moving to Toronto. <\/p>\n
Ms. Manning left private practice in Toronto in 2011 to pursue graduate studies in Natural Resources, Energy & Environmental Law at the University of Calgary, the government bio says. Having returned to legal practice in her home province in 2013, Ms. Manning now enjoys working as a sole practitioner in St. Johns. <\/p>\n
What the official news release neglects to mention is Manning never graduated from the University of Calgary. <\/p>\n
The University of Calgary law school website lists a title for an annotated bibliography Manning wrote in 2011, relevant to a major project or thesis paper. That document is titled,Is it within the power of the federal government to facilitate the development of hydroelectric power from Labrador to markets in Canada and the United States using the existing infrastructure of Hydro-Quebec for transmission? <\/p>\n
When The Telegram contacted the University of Calgary asking for a copy of the full paper, a spokeswoman said that it was never completed. <\/p>\n
