His name is Jim Bennett and he came to save the liberal party of NL. Unfortunenately the party passed away before poor ol Jim could make the trip from Canada to the province. Seems ol Jim decided after 3 months that the job couldn't be done and stepped aside. Suggestions have been made to put every man,woman and childs name in a hat and no other then the premier,Danny Williams himself would draw it. The winner would then be the new Liberal leader of NL. The pay is great and there's not much to do except sit and watch the Tories lead us down the road to a better future. As long as no fork appears in the road we may be ok for the time being and the road has no curves. Today Jim,i was thinking of playing a special song on my blog just for you. Candle in the wind would of been so appropriate but like your fellow buddies in the liberal ranks i just can't take the time to upload it or fool with you.Enjoy your life Jim. Reflect back at times and smile like your doing in the photo. (by the way Jim,that's the only photo i can find of you. I searched google,yahoo and a few more search engines and ended up swiping it from the VOCM news page.You kind of remind me of Red Green when i saw you at first.....sorry Jim. Now im starting to insult you and i apologise. If not i wouldn't be no more of a man then you could find in that deceased party you wanted to lead.

The term Tory was used in the American Revolution to describe those who remained loyal to the British Crown and government, or Loyalists. Since early in the eighteenth century, Tory had described those upholding the right of the Kings over parliament. During the revolution, particularly after the Declaration of Independence in 1776 this use was extended to cover anyone who remained loyal to the British Crown and government. Those Loyalists who settled in Canada, Nova Scotia, or the Bahamas are known as United Empire Loyalists.

Tory was frequently used as an adjective to make otherwise neutral terms pejorative to the revolutionaries. So a "Tory militia" was a militia unit which took the British side during the Revolutionary War.
Thank maybe this is why we have none of them left in the States.

If "Canada" is separate from "the province", what is "the province" a province of?
