A Newfoundland Government in the Black???? I recall Brian Peckford's Government wearing black arm bands and I recall Tobin's claim of breaking evening and no one wore a black tux like Moores, however, the Williams' Government is staring a surplus in the face. Good job. Hopefully, the suplus will go to debt reduction and tax cuts. Combine that with a further decrease in spending and the economy should really start to tick.
