Must... hate... Quebec...

The series of daily, oh-so Smallwoodian, Two-Minute Hates continues. Quoth the Great Man Himself on CBC Labrador Morning:
What they [Quebec] want to do, they don't want to put any of the social services in, they don't want to spend the hundreds of millions of dollars that my government is now putting into Labrador in order to improve you know, the College of the North Atlantic Schools for example, the hospital in Lab West, the new long term care facility or put money into transportation infrastructure. They just want to come in and they just want to cherry pick a situation where they can take the profits out as they've done with the Upper Churchill and reap the benefits from Labrador and have no social responsibility.
Interesting.

In the name of proving that his own government and his own province don't view Labrador in exactly the same way that he alleges Quebec does, and given that his self-styled "commitments" to Labrador, from the TLH to the auditorium in Happy Valley-Goose Bay are predicated on financial buck-passing to Ottawa, perhaps Premier Williams would like to itemize each and every million of the "hundreds of millions of dollars" that his government is supposedly spending in Labrador.
