Holy hypocrisy, Batman!

From the Ministry of Truth, this astounding exercise, even by Williams standards, in DoubleThink:
As for the issue of Hibernia South being viewed as an independent development, [Danny Williams is] maintaining his stance on the issue. Williams says he's surprised a federal minister has put their support behind the CNLOPB when there's not enough information available yet. He says the inherent conflict of interest is the feds supporting the CNLOPB while they own part of the project.
You mean... while they have "equity"? As in the state-ownership stake Chairman Dan himself covets?

"I have also informed him that without equity and enhanced royalty, there will be no Hebron project as long as I am Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador."

Perhaps the Hypocrite in Chief can explain, in his own words, given that both the federal and provincial governments are represented on the CNLOPB, how it is a federal government vice becomes a provincial government virtue!
