Humber Valley Resort to go bankrupt

The company is blaming the provincial government.

They should be blaming someone else: Brian Dobbin.

When Dobbin took his leave, the company was in a financial mess -  insoluble mess - as it turns out. The wrong business model is the polite way someone described it.

Too bad.  The resort was a good idea.

Just that the execution sucked. 

Newfoundland and Labrador isn't a barren place to grow new ideas or significant industry, as Dobbin tried to whine when the Indey folded for the second time.

It's a barren place for piss-poor management;  the financial record on the resort speaks for itself.

And by the by, this makes Dobbin  - at the very least  - oh for two.
