It's extremely distressing when signed agreements are not adhered to, ... We have a philosophy in Nova Scotia as a government, and I think the philosophy is shared by most Nova Scotians: If you have a contractual commitment, you keep it.

The people of the province want the government to be focused on energy. It is something that is very troubling to many, many Nova Scotians, and we are going to focus on energy.

That was the way it was presented to me and to my (police) chief.

We can do what we can do to make sure people aren't being gouged; that the price is fair and is being determined by demand and not gouging.

As premier, I am proud of our record.
