SUPREME COURT RULING Our attempts to correct the deal using moral and eth- ical appeals came to a standstill in 1984 when a Supreme Court ruling stated Newfoundland and Labrador could not get out of its agreement with Quebec on selling power from the Churchill Falls hydroelectric plant. Could Quebec have the answer we have been longing for? In 1963, to eliminate rate disparities, Quebec decided to nationalize the electricity sector (effectively seizing control of outside investors’ assets) and bringing it under the control of Hydro-Quebec. (Nationalization is the act of transferring assets into public ownership. It usually refers to the transfer of private assets, but may also mean assets owned by other levels of government.) Danny Williams had the right idea with the Abitibi Bowater Ex- propriation in 2008. The renewal clause in the 1969 Churchill Falls con- tract will have immense consequences. It ensures that from 2016 to 2041 all the economic rent associated with CFLCo’s electricity sales to Hydro-Québec will accrue to Hydro-Québec.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT: THE JAMES BAIRD GALLERY “I find that the east coast landscape has also crept into my work in a large way. Being close to the raw power of the ele- ments has inspired quite a number of works.” — Toronto based painter Steve Driscoll Steve Driscoll, Some Forgotten Dream 80.5”x55” “I found the time and space very helpful to my process and [I] appreciated his no-nonsense approach. From that time, we developed a close friendship and traveled quite extensively together, looking at and talking about art. I think that our shows together often give us purpose to hang out and shoot the shit on some level,” Driscoll said. “There has also been a great response to the work, and I always leave with more close friends and interested clients then I started with,” the artist said, a seemingly typical comment for most people who visit the island. DEFIANCE AGAINST COLOUR NORMS “I find that the east coast landscape has also crept into my work in a large way. Being close to the raw power of the elements has inspired quite a number of works. This particular show has handful of paintings which were in- spired by a visit to Gros Morne National Park last spring. The snowmelt was feeding the waterfalls making them wild with rage.” Driscoll’s landscapes appear to be defiant against tra- ditional use of colour. The idea that “the grass is green, the sky is blue” does not apply to Driscoll’s work, who uses colours from every spectrum of the prism of light. “I am more interested in a sense of emotive colour than representational. I think that painting is at its best when there is a sense of alchemy both with material and 26 The Newfoundland Herald/July 20 - 26, 2014

They are a way for me to keep my hands moving in practice.” — Steve Driscoll with colour,” Driscoll explained. “Over the past decade, I have primarily expressed myself through landscape, how- ever I began my career as an abstract painter and that is a hard habit to shake. I find myself equally interested in the process of watching paint dry as I do in finding new inspiration from nature.” FINDING BEAUTY IN THE FOG When asked if he, like many artists, paints his land- scapes from photos of scenes that struck him as beauti- ful, Driscoll provided an insightful and interesting answer. “I certainly take a lot of photos. Whenever I am in a canoe with someone, I always warn them that I may have to stop at a moments notice to take a photo, and that may happen frequently. That being said, I don't think of the act of photo taking as being the main inspiration to my work,” Driscoll said. “I am a studio artist, meaning I do all my work inside in a very specific environment. My development prima- rily happens in the studio while thinking about how I can use paint differently than I have done so previously. I use landscapes much like musicians use scales. They are a way for me to keep my hands moving in practice. I find the abundance of newness in landscape refreshing and parts will often trigger a different way for me to look at my work. A recent example would be fog, which is a very difficult thing to paint in the first place, but compound that with using a paint which is like water and you have a real challenge on your hands. So for me it isn't the place which had the fog I am interested in, it's the fog it- self. I take themes like fog or waterfalls and keep work- ing them until I feel as though I am making the actual thing rather than a depiction.” Driscoll uses urethane on many of his recent works. It is the same urethane one would use on hardwood floors. “I use urethane because it has always surprised me.

THE NEWFOUNDLAND PUZZLES & BRAIN TEASERSHERALD’S WEEKLY EACH WEEK TRAIN YOUR BRAIN WITH CLEVER PUZZLES! ANSWER US THIS... The Newfoundland Herald challenges readers to a collection of brain building activities. A number of people have broken the sound barrier, either in a super-fast car, or in nice fancy planes. However, hundreds of years ago it was broken on horseback. How? — braingle.com Answers — Many people who ride horses carry whips. They crack the whip while they ride the horse. When a whip is cracked, the tip travels faster than the speed of sound, which makes the loud snap. It actually creates a miniature sonic boom of sorts. The whip breaks the sound barrier, thus, it was broken on horseback. SNOWFLAKES There are 13 black hexagons in the puzzle. Place the numbers 1-6 around each of them. No number can be repeated in any partial hexagon shape along the border of the puzzle. © 2014 King Features Syndicate. All rights reserved. CryptoQuote © 2014 King Features Syndicate.
