SOL Day 4: Airport!

Nain will get an airport apparently.

Details are sketchy but CBC is reporting that transportation minister John Hickey told an audience in Goose Bay on Wednesday that the provincial government would be building a new airport in Nain.

To play such a big card so early on suggests either that the two Liberal seats in Labrador are a major target for the Progressive Conservatives or John Hickey is feeling a bit uneasy in his own backyard.
