Open letter to the People of Newfoundland and Labrador
"Thomas Jefferson once said, 'When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.' Every act of resistance counts against this province-killing budget and this government’s destructive policies and ignorant behaviour."
It’s time to get our political house in order
"I respectfully request you use your authority to halt the present course towards disaster and dissolve the current government. Call together experts in governance and crisis management from educational and other public institutions to develop a plan for moving forward in a new direction, one that ensures input from the people of the province."

An Open Letter to Cathy Bennett Concerning Anxiety
"Respectfully, Minister Bennett, the anxiety that you are currently witnessing pre-exists this budget. Your budget has inflamed it."
“I see nothing ahead for any of us”
"The Liberal Government's budget will not see us merely 'falling through the cracks' --- it will be the hand that pushes us through the cracks."

"We devoted 40 or more years contributing to the well-being of our province and our country.... In our wildest dreams we never envisioned that our government would betray us, put a gun to our heads, and demand that we forfeit our financial security."

"Let's work together to make it a better world for our children and their children. Show by example to your children it doesn't matter where we are in society, we all can work together and do it with respect for each other."
