Today marks the 10th anniversary of the first Sir Robert Bond Papers post.
In July 2004, I wrote and released a paper that tried to “examine offshore oil revenues and the Atlantic Accord in light of what the Accord actually provides.It was an attempt to evaluate the provincial government's proposal based on what had been made public to that point.”
Which is to be master? was supposed to be the first of a series of papers on different public policy issues. Each would have a different author. They would appear from time to time in order to foster “public discussion of issues affecting Newfoundland and Labrador.” The title of the series was going to be The Sir Robert Bond Papers.
