Province to loan up to $15M to Meadow Lake pulp mill

Over the years, the Saskatchewan government has invested $800 million in the venture through loans. Last year the government confirmed that following write-downs, its investment is now worth nothing.

That's so fucked up it deserves upside-down Spanish punctuation marks:

¿¡¿$800 million?!?

I am seriously interested in hearing why spending this kind of money on a retarded investment that employs less than 200 people when we're more than $12 billion in debt is anything but a completely ridiculous idea.

Your tax dollars at work, folks! Please remember this come election time and vote the NDP out of office - that is, if you haven't moved away by then like everyone else has.
