Promise made...

... promise long broken. From The Telgram's "On our Radar" feature today, Darin King becomes the latest in a long list of utterly gormless cabinet ministers left to defend Danny Williams' unfulfilled 2007 promise to bring in whistleblower protection legislation in the first session of the post-2007 legislature:

In a statement released to The Telegram, Justice Minister Darin King said whistleblower legislation "is complex and will have far-reaching implications for" the province's public sector. He said the government must ensure it fits the province's requirements, adding there are higher priorities for the department to deal with at this time and that such legislation "is not expected to be brought forward during this session" of the House.
