'atta boy, Gordo

I knew there was good reason to like this guy. In addition to vastly expanding the scope, scale, and stature of post-secondary education in the Okanagan, now he's doing something that will have a positive impact on a number of people in my family who are employed in the lumber industry. Hopefully this will spur on the other provinces to accept the softwood deal as well before the Monday deadline imposed by David Emerson. It may not be the optimal deal, but it's a damn good one and far better than having no deal whatsoever.
