Anyone following the ongoing saga of the Goose Bay air base could hardly be surprised to find out that no one is interested in supersonic flight training in the Big Land.
People have been chasing after this idea for years, just as they have been trying for years to keep the military in Goose Bay. They are trying not because Goose bay is militarily relevant but because some people want to keep public money flowing into the town. Go back to February 2005 and you will find a post here at SRBP on exactly that idea of trying to keep the town firmly on the public tit.
So seven years later, the future of Goose Bay remains the same: not with the military.
When will the provincial and federal governments, and some of the people in Goose Bay get the message?
Seems like they are all – like the provincial Liberals – destined to be clueless on this issue.
