I am inclined to go along with Ron Lewis [retired Staff Sergeant] on this. Me thinks the problems run very deep and need a real good look at by a full inquiry.
Not sure if my visuals had any great effect.
Five hours after I took a series of pics [4], of mostly empty shelves, they were full of ‘mostly fresh’ fruits and vegetablesand bread other than hamburger buns. People busily picking and choosing from a variety on a somewhat normal like Friday afternoon. It was sure different earlier in the day and yesterday, people coming in and walking out empty handed.
After hearing that the fresh and perishable goods were not going to be flown in yesterday I asked to take some photos, I sent them along to government officials at WST, local politicians and other folk involved it the process of making sure we on the north coast are an integral part of the province [Integral is the Premiers favorite word when talking about Labrador Newfoundland relations].
Also involved with communicating the situation were a number of other people via e mail, fax, phone and black berries. Something worked, to a point, still not a lot of bread in town, some did not get their full compliment of freight, but we thank Yahweh for small mercies. With fine weather today who knows?
Speaking of black berries, some English black berries came in, had some in a fruit salad on crêpes this morning.
Could this be a lesson for some people who have become reliant on store bought breads. It was not that long ago everybody was content with home made, either made by themselves or bought from a local. There are other lessons too, but most are not in a learning mood.
