In Golf, it's called a mulligan...

In politics, it's a do-over.

The Graham government has just announced a working group to examine the future of post-secondary education in NB. All indications are that this working group is supposed to fix the PR nightmare left by the work of the last guys.

The working group will be led by NB PSE officials.
Rick Miner has not been invited back.
The polytechnic idea may soon perish thanks to the work of over 4,000 Facebookers, another 1,000 or so committed emailers, and a united Saint John community.

Greetings Dulse and Fog,


My name is Jonathan Dean and I am leader and one of the founders of the new provincially based Atlantica Party. You might have heard of us of late.
We are currently expanding our party Executive and were hoping if you know anyone (including yourself) who might be interested in helping to build the party. Any previous party experience would be great but not necessary the only requirement is a desire for real change for Atlantic Canada! Our ultimate goal is to form the Provincial governments in one or more of the Atlantic Provinces. We are not a boring mainstream party and we for sure do not have mainstream policies. Rather we are interested in change for the better.
To find about what I am talking about check us out at www.atlanticaparty.ca
If you have any advice, questions you can reach me anytime at info@atlanticaparty.ca

Thanks for your time.
Cheers,

J. Dean

Last guys? Huh? I didn't think I elected bureaucrats, academics and consultants to make decisions and run this province.

Great news. We need more poet laureates driving the economy. Skilled trades are for chumps.
