Should have them in until the cows came home. Man do they (MHA's) feel important. I'm sure they will love the attention the fillibuster will give them over Christmas. After all, aren't they all about getting attention? Bluffs.

This year we wondered what we could give NALCOR and Ed for Christmas . With some timely help from Dunderdale and Co. we just turned over the provincial treasury to them. Now we can all GIVE happily ever after.
