We the people of Labrador are not that hard to convince that this proposed Lower Churchill project is a good one for the BigLand.
What Long-Term-Benefits justifies this proposed Lower Churchill Project for Labrador? Name them, 1,2,3,4,5,6 so on......
Nalcor & NL Government should show Labrador an official list of reputable companies they have enticed to be ready to roll in 2016 when the first power from Muskrat Falls comes on stream. I'm sure they could offered them a more then fair deal on electrical rates just for the long term jobs they would create alone?
*** i.e. ONE SCENARIO MAY LOOK LIKE THIS ***
---COMPANY #1----------Company #2--------Company #3

Now the next step might be to have the CEO's & Directors of these companies offer a presentaion at the Environmental Assessment Hearings & be open to questions from the Panel, Nalcor Energy & the audience.
This presentation would be extremely interesting considering the fact that Labrador already has 300mw of Upper Churchill Power that they cannot access.

No! Mfg isn't the Key
The TV says Mfg is the Key(manufacturing).
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! The Key is WE, 'LABRADOR HYDRO POWER, manufacturing is the Tool.
The Key to saving the Rock, and it's in the BigLand. Newfoundland desperately wants it, by hook or by crook. The NL government has the Million Dollar Advisors,the Psychologist, the Magicians to try and screw Labrador into the ground without them even knowing what hit them.
Trying to obtain Lower Churchill Power by the Newfoundland Government and it's side kick, Nalcor Energy is the biggest con-job I have ever heard off, even bigger then the BIG Upper Churchill Grab in the 60's, if that is possible.
It's time that Labrador stops becoming somebody else's Treasure Trove. Someone better wake Labrador people now and i'm not talking about a dozen or so up by John Hickey's Office in Happy Valley Goose Bay, i'm talking about 1000,s. They had better have a, Religious Experience at this moment. Something better hit them like a ton of brick, not tomorrow. Tomorrow, the horse will be longgg gone and twenty something thousand people will be closing the giant barn door. It will be a complete waste of time. Can't you see? The barn is empty, nothing else left in there for anyone to steel, at least no Lower Churchill Power. Why close the door now? She's gone boy, she's gone, lock stock and barrel. A deal sealed in stone like another one we know off. Nobody can help you now, not even God himself. You blew it! You were all to comfortable in your easy chair. Guess you wasn't hungry enough. Not only did you blow it for yourselves, you blew it for your children, your grandchildren and their children's children. Screwed, big time!
The Key, the Engine, the works, gone. The Power that would have driven any kind of industry in the BigLand, on the mainland of North American, not an island in the sea. We could have taken finished products anywhere from here, by planes,trains, and automobiles, even by boats. What! Boats! There is no ice-free ports in Labrador, is there? Our children's children will be extremely lucky to buy an automobile, let alone drive one to visit our friends in another part of Canada or elsewhere.
So, you might say, what can we actually do. Will! You can get the hell up to those, so called Environmental Assessment Hearing, hit them like a swarm of bees protecting their honey.
DO IT NOW!

Subliminal Ads/Hydro/School Children
WARNING: Do you know what a Subliminal message is? Have you ever seen or heard one?
I believe that this the very first time i`ve encountered one of these message since leaving Wabush, Labrador in 1984. For some unknown reason I tend to pick up on them.
People can usually see them when they are pointed out, but not before.
Look at these pictures and maybe you can understand where i`m coming from.
These are photos used by our children across the province, in schools today, Feb.25,2011. You may even see this on todays TV News.
Your thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
Be very alert children because bulling is all around us every day. Watch your back.

Lower Churchill, the risk
The risk you may as! What risk?
Will, lets call it a potential disaster in the works. A disaster of major proportions. The destruction of communities and it's people. A population of some 8000+ residents. Of course i'm refering to the communities of Churchill Falls, Happy Valley Goose Bay and Mud Lake. The destruction by massive flooding because of broken Dams caused by earthquakes or even terrorism. i.e. If the Upper Churchill Dams were destroyed, it would take aproximately 12 minutes to flood Happy Valley Goose Bay.
Terrorism! Where did that come from? Will the potential is there, especially after 911 and the U.S. enemies around the world. Apparently the Upper Churchill was at risk and 5th on a terrorist list found in a Duffle Bag at the town of Churchill Falls. See, by hitting the hydro power supplies in Labrador the enemy would be hitting the United States indirectly.
Flooding isn't that far fetched. Look around the world, Australia , Newfoundland etc.. Flooding caused by nature or humans is still flooding and can put many lives at stake.
Who is taking the chances here? Not so much the Newfoundland residents, nor Ottawa residents, nor the Innu of Sheshatshiu or Natuashish or coastal community residents. Maybe some risk by the residents of North West River and the Innu of Sheshatshiu, but why would the Innu care, especially the leaders when the financial benefits are so great for them? We know that like most people the Innu of Sheshatshiu cares about the almighty dollar and the good it entails. What about the health issues because of the almighty dollar and we know that these aboriginal people are not use to wealth in large amounts?
Where are the rewards for taking these risks? The rewards for the Inuit, the NunatuKavut(Metis) and the Labrador Settlers? We can immagine the rewards for the island of Newfoundland and others, but what about us, the real stakeholders? Are we willing to take the risks involved in another flooding of land for another hydro development? Enormous amounts of water backed up for miles behind Dams, a potential force that could be unleashed on us anytime.
This story is not meant to alarm people but to inform them. Just understand and be aware of these unnatural forces, forces that are created by men and women for money, forces that could eventually destroy us, forces that can be avoided.

Nation Building, Nfld Style
Removing our national flag. Remember that? Will, it happened and it was ordered by our own premier, Danny Williams.
He claimed it was for good reasons but I wonder what the rest of Canada thought of it. Did he put much thought into the consequences
of such actions? Consequences such as future requests for funding of major projects in NL. consequences such as wanting to run for Prime Minister sometime down the road. Did Danny Williams expect Ottawa to have a short memory and forget about this drastic action?
Lets look at federal funding for the Lower Churchill. After everything that as transpired concerning constant attacks against Ottawa by the Williams government, will the feds actually go out of their way now to help this province finance Muskrat Falls or will they just brush us off? What would you do for an enemy of your government and your country? Will Harper be kind to NL, forgive the PC's and send them a large cheque?
How could the Newfoundland and Labrador Government recover from such a move as removing our countries flag? How can they come back and be forgiven by the Feds so that they can obtain big bucks from Ottawa again? Maybe it could be accomplished by the ring leader (Danny Williams)resigning. Is that why he resigned? Maybe Ottawa will then look at helping us again. Is this the reason Kathy Dunderdale, our new premier is now in Canada's Capital with hat in hand asking for help to develop the Lower Churchill? Will it work or will Ottawa see through this facade? Ottawa knows that NL has the same government that backed Danny Williams by attacking our country. Will Ottawa forgive and forget knowing this fact?
Ottawa also as some additional gripes about this provincial government. Maybe they are asking themselves if this provincial government is really democratic? They have to wonder this after seeing the fiasco with Brad Cabana. Do the Feds want to support financially an un democratic province? Then there is the move by NL PC's to coronate Kathy Dunderdale as the new premier so that she can carry on the work of the former premier, uninterrupted.
Food for thought.

Nfld Gov Propaganda Wagon
Dumber then Hell!
The NL PC Propaganda(brainwashing) Wagon is still rolling along. See the latest VOCM NEWS.
Kathy Dunderdale appears to be carrying on Danny Williams tradition of hitting the media regularly (every week or so). Trying to get them to think that this proposed Lower Churchill is really going forward.
Oh what a dream!
Maybe she is really hoping to drive up the shares of Nelcor and Emera. I think that stock investors are much to wise for that. Any intelligent investor would do research on the Lower Churchill and discover the same as many Labrador people have. This proposed project will never go anywhere without the approval of the majority of Labrador's citizens, period.
What good is federal loan guarantees gonna do anyway. Loans will still have to be repaid. Multi Billion Dollar Loans will drive up Hydro Rates big time in this province or drive our taxes through the roof. One way or another NL citizens will pay through the nose.

Where in the World is Sue Kelland Dyer?
Wish she was living in Labrador and an advocate for what's right and what's wrong in the BigLand Warehouse(that's the way NL Gov looks at Lab).
I'm sure she could build a great case for us concerning Lower Churchill, Nelcor and Emera.
Come on Sue, your brother lived here amongst us (rest his soul), why can't you?
You know Jim left unfinished business here.
Then again maybe you could team up with his local sons and be even a stronger force for any government to deal with.
The local aboriginals and the displaced Newfoundland residents living here for many years who made Labrador their home, could use you`re expertise. Actually, you could be helping the whole province by assisting Labrador.
The least you can do for your many followers is to inform us exactly why you gave up the fight on all big issues concerning the general public of the province.
Maybe you would consider running in politics for Labrador. Whatever it takes.

Great Day for Labrador
Dec 3, 2010! Mark it on your calendar, the day Danny Williams resigns. The PC Party's champion will be gone. A day of celebrations for all Labradorians.
Hopefully this is a lucky break for the BigLand, we may have escaped another huge giveaway, a Lower Churchill Falls Development and more polution of the Grand River.
Personally, I looked at this guy as if he had a few grains of intelligence. How neive could a person and a party be to expect to sign a deal on a Lower Churchill Hydro Project with one small group of Aborigional people and roll right over the rest Labrador's people? So stupid, in my book! i.e How could they just overlook the Metis people and expect to lay a powerline across their territory without their direct input?
All the people of Labrador are really stake holders on any Lower Churchill development.
Maybe Harper let Danny and the Innu down, in Ottawa today. Something fishy happened up there. So did he come back with his tail between his legs crying in his coffee? Maybe he decided to resign to turn all Newfoundland voters against Harper in the next Federal election.
What did Williams really accomplish during his two terms as premier? He lucked into Oil Revenuse, he wasn't responsible for it's development. He did butter-up Labrador people with the Trans-Labrador Highway expansion etc.. In my mind that was peanuts to get what he really was after.
I called him the Saviour of the Rock and the Angel of death for Labrador. Will, he could have been the Saviour of the rock if he had gotten this Lower Churchill Power to the island. Taking our power right under our noses would have been like a slow death for us and the prospects for our future. No extra Hydro Power in Labrador would have meant no future industries for us.
He is a quitter, quitting before his term was up just like Brian Tobin.
A very happy day for me. Actually i'm glad he is a quitter. I wonder if he is a major shareholder with Emera in Nova Scotia. Naw! He couldn't be, could he?
