Shakeyhands Posted March 10, 2005 Report Posted March 10, 2005 I'm willing to bet the flag flap helped him in the areas that usually vote Conservative, not so much in the Liberal ridings. by the way Newfie, you a townie or a bayman?

Newfie Canadian Posted March 10, 2005 Author Report Posted March 10, 2005 I suspect you may be right, Shakeyhands. by the way Newfie, you a townie or a bayman?Bayman.Born, raised and living in Conception Bay North. I have lived in Town, but I didn't like it a whole lot. You from these parts Shakeyhands?

Shakeyhands Posted March 11, 2005 Report Posted March 11, 2005 no.. the wife is from the Burin Peninsula, a little town called Lawn thats sandwiched in between Marystown and St. Lawrence. so I guess I am sorta like an honorary Newfie...

Newfie Canadian Posted March 21, 2005 Author Report Posted March 21, 2005 Finance Minister Sullivan released his budget today. Pretty much a good news budget, especially considering that last years budget was brutal. Here's the government web page for the budget. http://www.budget.gov.nl.ca/budget2005/\ I thought it was OK. New health care and education money, including some much needed medical equipment and new school buses. Guess all that cash from the Atlantic Accord, the Health Care Deal and the high price of oil came in handy. Looks like Williams will get re-elected. I loves the boiled dinner! Nothing quite like it, is there? Quote "If you don't believe your country should come before yourself, you can better serve your country by livin' someplace else." Stompin' Tom Connors
