Terminological inexactitude

"Budget 2009 paves the way for Labrador" blares the Budget 2009 headline at The Telegram.

The body of the story, quoting Our Dear Finance Minister, says, "we will also move forward with work to place a hard driving surface on the Highway from Happy Valley-Goose Bay to Labrador City-Wabush..."

A "hard driving surface"?

Is that way being paved... or being chipsealed?

Or, as certain people used to call it, "cheap-sealed"?
