NDP: Throne Speech

NDP Dept: In other words, there was plenty of summing up the last four years as one NDP ground-breaking initiative after another, according to The Chronicle Herald. Governments obviously arent in the habit of mentioning their failures in such speeches, so there also were no counterbalances such as the NDP mishandling of the Yarmouth ferry closure, the provincial riding boundaries review controversy or their reluctance to push municipal reform and t UESDAY provincial throne speech was mostly what you d expect from a majority government near the end of its term that will soon be seeking a new mandate from the electorate. That said, while the rhetoric was certainly overly exuberant at times, it fair to note the NDP government does deserve credit for many of the accomplishments listed in the throne speech including those in mental health, emergency department standards and immigration, to name but a few.
