When the going gets tough...

...the predictable starts picking fights with the federal government:

Premier Requests Immediate Action for Deer Lake Regional Airport Authority

Immediate action is required by the Minister of Public Safety, Stockwell Day, on two requests made by the Deer Lake Regional Airport Authority (DLRAA) to the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), to provide additional customs officials for two weekly international flights from January to April and to designate the airport as an Airport of Entry. The Honourable Danny Williams, Premier of Newfoundland and Labrador, has written Minister Day to emphasize the urgency of the situation.

[...]

The Premier said this is a great opportunity for the federal government to live up to its commitment to increase federal government presence and employment in the province, especially given the obvious need for these positions

[Emphasis added.]

Setting aside the curious question of why Glorious Leader himself, and not, say, his Transport or Intergovernmental Affairs ministers, penned this letter, it must be asked:

where, when, and how did Glorious Leader delude himself into thinking that the Harper government ever made a "commitment to increase federal government presence and employment in the province"?

Because, if you can read the English language, you'll find that such a committment certainly isn't to be found here.

(And right on cue, over at the Ministry of Truth, Comrade Rowe, in the introduction today's running of his daily Two-Hour Hate, opines that this is yet another reason to wonder whether we are part of Canada, we should separate, blah blah blah. That'll teach Stockwell Day!)
