If they quit with the retroactive political reengineering and perhaps focus on important issues (healthcare, education, infrastructure, deficits?) rather than kissing the APPs ass we could still call them a government.
With all this BS, along with her own MLAs potentially engineering recall petitions against themselves after which the proponents go incognito and no one can collect or sign ensuring failure because only one recall petition can be active at a time), it is hard to refer to what is transpiring, as governance.
It certainly isn't the "peace, order and good governance" that we all allegedly aspire to!
The terms tinpot, banana republic and klown kar all come to mind when viewing the unethical work of the UCP marionettes the Premier has in caucus and on Executive Council.
We all need to know what the real numbers are. She can untie all the knots by finding out how strong the true separatists really are. I think when push comes to shove the numbers are lower than we separatist want them to be. And if that’s true, she can put this to bed once and for all. If it’s not true … she is better positioned to strike a deal than the separatist who wouldn’t even be able to agree on a referendum question at this time, much less anything else.
Funny how Smith has tied herself up in knots here, and many other places, trying to change the laws in favor of her oh so precious separatist base, while she keeps bumping up against those darn pesky rules/laws/constitution/judges. If only she could simply be trusted to make the laws of the land, we'd all be much better off. Peoples rights and the constitution be damned, Smith (and her still angry separatist base) is in charge. If only the government would give the citizens a mechanism to recall all those nasty politicians who dont act in their best interests....oh wait, she tied herself up over there too. Tough game she's playing.
It seems that the UCP has antagonized you, but that's not news. I'm waiting for their take on all of this. Did you ask them before writing? Or get an interview? i'd like to hear both sides.

There is one solution, hold a referendum.
