And then there’s natural resources minister Kathy Dunderdale:
Mr. Speaker, when the members opposite sat over here they certainly had no expertise in developing deals, negotiating contracts, as we saw on a number of occasions in the fourteen years of their mandate.
Of course not, Kathy.
After all, Hibernia, Terra Nova and White Rose didn’t happen in those 14 years.
And they didn’t produce every single nickel of the billions that have raised the public treasury to unprecedented heights since 2003.
No.
And it’s not like those original deals not negotiated by Dunderdale’s boss will produce the bulk of the money she claims will come from Hisself’s efforts:
…three major oil deals that we have negotiated with a value to this Province over the life of those projects, Mr. Speaker, of $35 billion.
Let’s not even remind Kathy that the figure $35 billion is pure fabrication.
All Dunderdale did today in the legislature was confirm her profound, undeniable, astounding ignorance.
There’s no other word for it.
