No more giveaways!

According to the professional Newfnats, the Atlantic Accord is now officially in the canon of "giveaways", to the point that it required a remedy in the form of yet more money from the federal government — the "Atlantic Accord 2005".

Such a bad deal, that original Atlantic Accord, so unfair that it sparked a "campaign for fairness" in Nova Scotia, so terribly, terribly, terribly terrible that...

... well, that Quebec is now looking for pretty much exactly the same thing.

There are two issues here:

One is a clear definition of the interprovincial boundary in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

The other is the achievement of an agreement with Ottawa on revenues.

But that's really Quebec's problem.

On the Newfoundland and Labrador side of the border, the agreements already exist that would allow development to take place.
