Making Walls Talk

It has now been more than a month since Barb Sweet of the Telegram revealed to a breathlessly awaiting public the existence of a report, commissioned by the provincial government, on the future of the Colonial Building, entitled "Making These Walls Talk."

A report.

Commissioned by the provincial government.

A report, therefore, of the type that was the subject of one of Danny Williams' The Party's 2003 election campaign promises to:
Release to the public every government-commissioned report within 30 days of receiving it, indicate the action government will take on a report's recommendations within 60 days, and ensure prompt public access to all government reports in hard copy and on the Internet.
Why, then, hasn't "Making These Walls Talk" been released to the public on the Internet at all, let alone within the promised 30 days?

Isn't it ironic, a veritable black fly in your chardonnay if you wil, that the walls of Confederation Building are even more clammed up, less prone to talking, than the walls of the poor old Colonial Building.

Tourism, Culture and Recreation, which received the Dunbar-Apropos report that it commissioned for $200,000 but has yet to post to the internets, can be contacted at (709) 729-0862.

The Minister's office is 729-7032.
