Straight faces
Nottawa quotes a couple of choice Danny lines from today's Telegram, with respect to the Hebron negotiations:
"We’ve narrowed that gap dramatically...
...Suffice it to say, we, as a province, have not moved on this position at all."
(La province c'est "nous"?)
In any case, the question is not how anyone can print that with a straight face.
It's how anyone can say that with a straight face.
And, yes, true enough, it is Chief Dan Two-Face uttering those statements, whose record on consistency, or even truth, is just a mite spotty.
But still... didn't it occur to anyone to ask how "we" narrowed the gap if "we" haven't moved on any positions?

Did you catch the "10,000 of MY employees" reference too? sheesh.
10,000?
So much for this, then:
Approximately 40% of all government expenditures goes towards salaries and employee benefits. Over the next five years, approximately 25% of the public service will be eligible for retirement. A Progressive Conservative government will use this five-year period to reduce the size of the public sector through attrition.
