Anyone heard from Danny "Millions"?

Anyone notice something unusual? Yea, I thought you might have. Stephane Dion has managed to accomplish something incredible, something that no other federal leader has been able to do... he's managed to shut up Danny "Millions" Williams with his "Green Shaft" Carbon Tax scheme.

How? Well, that's actually where the good news ends for Dion. You see, prior to Dion's "Green Shaft" carbon tax plan, Danny boy was shouting "ABC!" from the rooftops... to vote for "Anybody But Conservatives" in the next election.

Now? He knows that as an oil producing province, Dion's "Green Shaft" will pump millions OUT of his province, just like it will in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Nova Scotia, which are all (now) oil producing provinces.

Here's the only thing I can find online regarding Danny's opinion of Dion's carbon tax, from the Telegram:

"I have a position on that at this point, but I'm not prepared to discuss it," Williams said.

When asked why not, he sharply replied, "I don't really feel like it, quite frankly."

You see, Danny's always been a bit of a prideful fellow, and maybe he just can't bring himself to say anything about Dion's carbon tax plan. Because in so doing, he'd have to recommend the voters of his provice do exactly the opposite of what he's been telling them for months... to vote for their local Conservative candidate in an effort to stop Dion's costly "Green Shaft".

Dion's "Green Shaft"... helping rally Canadians in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia to the Conservative banner like never before.

UPDATE: Platty got the "Talk to the hand, we'll talk when we're good and ready" reply from the Gov. of Newfoundland as well.

One theory is that Danny Boy is actually considering supporting Dion's carbon tax, if he can manage to get a side-deal out of Dion.

Now we'll see what Dion's really made of... if he offers a deal to Newfoundland, it means this "Carbon Shaft" is just that, a plan to specifically plunder the West.

And it will mean that his outspoken MP's like Martha Hall Findley will be correct in their assesments of Dion's Carbon Tax plan... that it's really just a crass political ploy to buy votes in Ontario, and not really a plan to deal with Climate Change.
