Dumaresque marks third target in the Big Land
Tuesday, September 11, 2007 | 05:17 AM ET
Former Liberal MHA and current party president Danny Dumaresque has caught a little attention (and, according to some reports, a little criticism) for running in the northern Labrador district of Torngat Mountains in this election. Dumaresque's main stomping ground is to the south, where he represented the former district of Eagle River (now known as Cartwright-L'Anse au Clair) for two terms during the Clyde Wells era.
Give Dumaresque credit, though, for being geographically diverse.
This will actually be the third of the four Labrador districts where Dumaresque has sought a seat. In 1984, he ran in a byelection in Menihek district (now known as Labrador West), but lost out to New Democrat Peter Fenwick.
It makes you wonder whether Dumaresque might at some time consider running in the central Labrador district of Lake Melville, just to cover all of the Big Land.
