At times it makes us, as Newfoun
dlanders, feel less Canadian when we hear comments coming out of central Canada—especially by bureaucrats or some politicians—saying TAGS is a waste of money, that it's taxpayers' money that has gone
down the drain, and here you have thousands and thousands of people from this province
who have brought a great resource of the world into Canada when we joined Confederation and we turned it over to be
...[+++]managed for our own well-being and for the wealth of Canada and look what happened to it: it was totally destroyed.
Les Terre-neuviens sont parfois moins fiers d'être Canadiens lorsqu'ils entendent des gens du Canada central—en particulier des fonctionnaires et certains politiques—dire que la LSCA est un gaspillage de l'argent des contribuables. Or, des milliers de gens de cette province ont, quand Terre-Neuve s'est joint à la Confédération, apporté au Canada une grande ressource qui a été complètement détruite.
