That’s a wrap on the fall sitting of the provincial legislature.

The House of Assembly adjourned yesterday until next March, having sat for just 15 days since mid-October.

Premier Andrew Furey believes they were able to advance many different files during the fall sitting—such as ones on education of Clare’s Law, and make several significant announcements such as the recent one on WestJet.

PC Leader Tony Wakeham chooses to focus on the problems that still linger, such as housing.

Wakeham notes that the fall sitting began with tents on the lawn outside of Confederation Building, and those “haven’t disappeared, they’ve just moved.” He does not believe that the province’s housing plan has been fixed.

Ultimately, Furey and Wakeham are at odds over whether enough time was given for the fall sitting.

Furey believes the length of time was adequate, but Wakeham contends that a longer term was needed.

Meanwhile, NDP Leader Jim Dinn sat quiet for most of the fall sitting after refusing to withdraw what House Speaker Derek Bennett determined to be unparliamentary language.

Dinn says he wonders every day if he made the right choice, but references an exchange yesterday as justification for his choice.

NDP MHA Jordan Brown asked a question of the health minister, but instead got a response from Environment Minister Bernard Davis about a previous question.

“So you tell me which is more effective,” says Dinn, who notes that he can ask questions in the House, but they will either be a response to the preamble, a response to an old question, or “anything else that comes to their mind.”
