I guess we all remember Mark Critch chastising Mark Kelley - of CBC Connect the Vote - because the program left Newfoundland and Labrador off their cross-country tour during the election.
Kelly - within a couple of days - crew in tow showed up in St. John's - they say because of the outcry from Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. As we know the story goes - Quebec was next on the agenda for the tour.
So yesterday Mark stopped in Quebec and did what he had never done before - interview his brother - who happens to be a Quebec provincial Cabinet Minister.
I have another really pressing issue for Mark and CBC - look at the video of the interview below - and tell me why Mark Kelley did not ask Minister Kelley about the huge map set as the backdrop as the two brothers meet and embrace. What's with the boundary Mark? (about 1 minute in)
The question of the interview? "What's it like to be federalist in Quebec". I don't know Mark but I can tell you what it's like to be a Newfoundlander and Labradorian in Canada.
Hard not to be cynical isn't it?

When listening to the radio, watching television or reading the newspapers about events in this province, there seems to be a missing link. One that bridges all that information together and provides a way for people to contribute, express or lobby their concerns in their own time. After-all, this is our home and everyone cannot fit in Lukie's boat and paddle their way to Upper Canada, nor should we!
