Well, Danny, me son, Goodbye

So Danny Williams is resigning as premier.

Seems that he has accomplished what he wanted, a deal to develop the Lower Churchill, and now he's going to pack it in.

I certainly didn't agree with everything he did, but you can't say he was indecisivie or vague.

What is it with Newfoundland and demagogues anyway?

It's the accent, see, they keep thinking it's "demi gods"

Yes b'ye!

I wonder how much we'd have to pay him to get him to run B.C. for awhile. At least with Danny we'd know it was being done properly and he wouldn't take any crap from anybody. :smile:

One of the few honest politicians in the past 100 years (along with Stanley Knowles, Tommy Douglas and Dief the Chief)

Screw you. we need him in Ontario. We need some oil royalties or something. Or something. OK, nevermind. We're f+cked. Hey, buy a Camaro, support Ontario. OK, nevermind again.
We can only wish for such a noble Newf to lead us.

I'm not sure I'd go that far.

Honest politician. The original oxymoron.

Generally speaking, yes, but he's definitely the least of a whole sh*t load of evils.

You're all way off. If he's going to take anyone's job, I suspect he'll do like most folk from Atlantic Canada and take someone's job in Alberta. Watch your back Stelmach :lol:

Agreed. this man has my respect despite being a politician.

Oh dear. Super LOL.

What I liked about Danny is no matter what political stripe he could sure piss them all off.

Thank you Mr. Williams for standing up for our province and setting us on a clear path to prosperity. I don't believe we've heard the last of Danny Williams. Keep looking over your shoulder Harper.

B.C. First. We need a premier that will stand up to Ottawa and put B.C. taxpayer interests ahead of reelection. Since you got Ottawa and Toronto I don't see any hope for you anyway. LOL

Quite a few Ontarions are moving to B.C. - maybe they know something favourable that we don't. :lol:
