Literary news

Bill Rowe takes leave of his column — the soap-box from which he preached Newfoundland separation from Canada, Labrador separation from Newfoundland, Newfoundland and Labrador union with Quebec, which would then separate from Canada, and the relocation of the provincial capital to somewhere more central, like Brasilia — in order to write a book:
Therefore, over the next number of months, I’m going to write about my interlude in that artificial capital, away from real life, during a period that corresponded with the dramatic buildup, climax and conclusion of the Atlantic Accord negotiations between Premier Danny Williams and Prime Minister Paul Martin and their assorted minions. I’ll be attempting, no punches pulled, to provide insights for the future into the kinds of persons, attitudes and actions that helped or hindered our little province in its dealings with a powerful and largely uncaring Ottawa.
Should be a real page-turner.

Both of them.
