Description:

These four off-air recordings of Newfoundland radio broadcasts concern the action taken by the Newfoundland government with respect to off-shore oil drilling. Mobil Oil was ordered to cease drilling because of severe winter conditions. In the first item, recorded from VOCM'S open-line program ACTION LINE, premier Brian Peckford defends his government's decision citing poor search and rescue capabilities and the threatened lives of 84 people on the drilling rig "West Venture" off the St. John's coast. The three recordings which follow are news items broadcast by CJYQ, CBC and VOCM stations respectively. Comments of Jean Chrétien, Minister of Energy, Mines and Resources; William Marshall, Newfoundland Energy Minister; and Steve Neary, provincial Liberal Party leader are heard in addition to those of Premier Peckford.
