Timing is everything

The Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) and the Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Environment and Conservation (the Department) invited public comment on the draft guidelines for the preparation of the environmental impact statement (EIS) for the proposed Lower Churchill Hydroelectric Generation Project on December 19th, 2007.

The week before Christmas.

With a deadline of this coming Monday.

Today, the Honourable Charlene Johnson for some reason felt it necessary to personally re-issue the CEAA release which effectively concedes that maybe the timing of the inital comment period wasn't so good after all.

Of course, the announcement of the new deadline — now pushed back to February 27th — was also made at five minutes to four on a stormy Friday afternoon.

You gotta love the openness and transparency of The Most Accountable Government In The Galaxy.

And lookie! The Public Accounts — no, Westcott, Public Accounts, Public — are out, too!
