LOCATION
CONTENT
Notes:
Alden Nowlan is interviewing Richard Hatfield, during election campaign to be re-elected premier.
- Asks why should the voters believe Hatfield and his government will keep their promises from this campaign (when they haven't kept some during this term)?
- Discussion of money spending of Hatfield’s government; its focus on social services, keeping the tax burden down.
- First priority is to develop the economy of the province.
- [00:26:35] other interviewee clips talking about Hatfield
- [00:27:46] tape cuts to choral singing.
- [00:29:16] Notes on the first draft of Frankenstein from Walter Learning. Notes to be typed up and sent to Alden Nowlan.
- [00:47:45] tape cuts to piano music, presumably the Chopin ballads that had been taped over. - [00:50:50] Can hear tapping in the background—possibly the noise of the radio/record player. - [00:53:43] Alden Nowlan yawns.
- [00:54:56] tape cuts, muffled noises, and then returns to the Chopin ballad.
