There will come a time when the PFD will go away. That is inevitable as the rise and fall of the tide, the setting sun, or colder temperatures in the coming months. I hate to say it because it has been a tremendous help to my elderly mother and disabled brother and myself. 

But equitable concessions must be made before the PFD should be reduced( oil credits, union wages, you name it - everything!). And though progress has been made, that hasn't quite yet happened. So I egg on the Kearon's and the Macleod's keeping the pressure on to keep level of spending reduced to more sustainable levels.
