Kevin Noble thinks Newfoundlanders and Labradorians will listen to Joey twice

I am absolutely shocked at the lows to which Kevin Noble will sink.

He just finished his expected call to Paddy Daley on Back-Talk and actually said he was doing a "Joey", by saying he was reducing the information to the simplest possible and then just repeat it and repeat it and people will follow.

Let me guess Kevin what's next - "These are our falls, this is our power, this is our resource".

Yes Kevin - the one and only thing you got right was the comparison to Joey and the Upper Churchill.

Both deals are devastating giveaways and make certain people rich - while Newfoundland and Labrador gets a very short end of the stick.

Then the actor tried to link the development of Muskrat Falls to a parking lot - and although we only have one space now - beware in the future we will own the lot. Yes I must say that is exactly the logic used on the Upper Churchill.

Outside of my obvious disgust at political prostitution - Noble actually managed to prove that this deal is the same as the Upper Churchill - while trying to promote the project for government.

In this case Kevin your acting skills failed you. Try again.

I heard the conversation that Kevin Noble had with Paddy Daly and I have to say what he had to say made me sick. The fact that Mr. Noble is willing to have our province suffer the same fate of the Upper Churchill shows what we are dealing with here in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Again under the Muskrat Falls Contract those orchestrating this contract are willing to pass over the benefits of that precious energy to Nova Scotia and other parts of Canada and watch those areas reap the benefits of having cheap power and creating industries from the project, while Newfoundlanders and Labradorians,at least 90% of them are unaware of what is coming the pipeline and the hardships they will have to suffer from the consequences of paying off the mortgage on the project, with the risk of having their electrical utility bill double.

Those who are orchestrating this terrible contract onto our province and our people have not learned any lessons from the past, greed still prevails here, all that they are concerned about is adding a few more million to their own personal treasuries during the development phase. It is frightening the latitude that our politicians have without supervision from anyone. The political system needs to be overhauled. The way it stands today, a reigning politician can do what he/she darn well wishes with the natural resources of the people and along with the entity he/she chooses to be the beneficiary of the resource of the people being developed, the politician can also because a beneficiary of the resource, as well. WE NEED POLITICAL REFORM BADLY!
