A Tale of Two Dannies

Abraham Lincoln once said, "let the people know the truth and the country is safe." We will keep the people of this Province fully informed; there will be no secret documents, there will be no hidden agenda. If you and I know the facts then we will collectively decide the best course for our future. At the end of the day, the most formidable judge and jury I have ever faced will be the people of this Province.
