If media reports hold up, Conservative leader Stephen harper will be in St. John’s on Thursday to announce his party will give the provincial government a loan guarantee to dam a river in Labrador, double provincial electricity rates and increase the provincial public debt by something up to 50% from what it is right now.
Now that is all bad enough.
But to make matters worse, Harper’s Labrador candidate has a problem within his own community.
Peter Penashue’s mother opposes the project.
