Newfoundland cancels court action against AbitibiBowater

No surprise here.

Why would NALCOR want it's dirty laundry hauled through the courts? Not that they don't own the local courts...but still, it would be nice to know what happened to bill 27. That's the bill that would've made ABH go through a year long public process starting in January to get a renewal on their 100 year lease over all those resources NALCOR now has under its thumb (without any court dates or public processes).

Pretty slick, but hopefully not slick enough to keep the corrupt public officials out of the slammer when we get real government accountability around here ( a man should be allowed to dream after all). These paltry indictments for spending allowance no-no's is just a start. Why shouldn't we take it all the way, now that the door is open, and go after those who've sold our resources for backdoor deals and golden handshakes.
