Can Atlantic Canada afford to fall even further behind?
Subsidies corrupt our political system
Baffling. That is the only way to describe public reaction to the Nova Scotia government’s recent announcement that it is pouring tens of millions of dollars more aid into Sydney Steel.

What is baffling is why people are mystified that the government would stump up more cash.
