| If we had Equalization, we'd have a budget surplus. |
On Friday,
20 Mar 20, Premier Dwight Ball wrote to the Prime minister to say that the
financial arse was out of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Ball included
in the letter not a shred of financial evidence nor did he include any hint as
to what exactly he expected the federal government to do to fix this situation.
Last
weekend, once the public heard about this alarming letter, the Premier was
anywhere and everywhere confirming that the provincial government was mostly,
completely destitute.
*This*
weekend his finance minister is – not surprisingly – telling a completely
different story.
