Message from the Chairperson

The Big Reset is a transformational plan for Newfoundland and Labrador that attempts to tie all aspects of the economy and society together to meet some of the biggest challenges and opportunities ever faced by the Province. The technological revolution and the revolution related to climate change requires a shift in how the Province and the world does business. There also needs to be a change in how government manages its financial affairs.

It’s time for us to talk, step up and act for the good of our province. We encourage you to get informed, speak out, and ask hard questions. This debate is about your future. The only way through this is together.
