Curious to see Here and Now running a clip of Don Jamieson returning to lead the Liberal party in 1979 after Bill Rowe resigned.
It’s not quite the same situation as the one Liberals and others in the political world are facing today.
Kathy Dunderdale is no Brian Peckford, for starters.
And that is a sentence easily nominated for understatement of the millennium.
But while Yvonne Jones is stepping down as Liberal leader for health reasons, Liberal leader Bill Rowe left politics – thereby opening the job for Jamieson - after figuring prominently in one of the biggest political scandals in the province’s history.
