The island of Labrador? (II)

Another day, another massively bloated .pdf document, in landscape format that is keeping the platitude industry out of recession. Yes, the Williams Government has released his report on air transportation in the province. Here's the link to the file. Warning: it's big.

Notice the title: Setting Direction: Study of Air Transportation, Newfoundland and Labrador.

The document, so titled, goes on to say — cue the inspirational music — at pp. 6-7:

As a province, we must immediately, and with a sense of urgency, focus on our strengths, including our robust economy, and on the fact that an island’s continuing economic growth is related to the transportation infrastructure that supports it.

[Emphasis added.]

What about the continue economic growth of non-islands? What's that related to?

Incidentally... what's our island, with its robust economy, doing running a deficit of between $400-million and a billion, and why, at this stage in the budget-building process, is there such an astonishing lack of precision about how big our island's deficit will be?
