Nice day looming again, the wind has kept things frosty but nothing one cant handle if one is inclined.

Can’t go without mentioning, the total lack of public discourse, within Nunatsiavut on the pending Nutrition North program. CKOK did the interview with the Nunatsiavut representative on NN but that was just a non informative spiel on behalf of INAC and Nutrition North I am afraid.

It seems Nunatsiavut Government have two people on the Nutrition North issue, one on the panel of advisors to NN and the other the Director of Community Services for the Dept of health of NG whose role with the NN program I am not familiar with.

Neither live in Nunatsiavut nor have I heard any public announcement of them visiting the area to either disseminate or garner information. Nor have we heard a peep out of any elected officials with NG.

Meanwhile further north the discourse goes on like the energizer bunny on steroids.

Later:

would be remiss if I did not mention that BigLand had better quality fresh vegetables than Northern this week, not a bad selection too for winter.

I was listening in to VOCM talk back with Randy Simms a bit this morning. Not sure why but lots of people calling in complaining about the rising price of food. God forbid that the poor people down there are paying 9 dollars for 6 chicken breasts, or 3 dollars for a loaf of bread. Bloody hell the cheapest bread up here is 4.99, and that is for stuff that looks and taste like cardboard.

Wow! No wonder you bake your own bread! Ours is $2.99 for in store bakery, and I thought that was high! Home baked things taste much better anyway.
