Before considering the veracity or likelihood of such statements, one should first review the definition of “visionary,” as this will help us to apprehend the Premier’s mentality. “Visionary” is defined as “1. existing only in a vision or the imagination; unpractical; fanciful: visionary schemes/scenes/plans. 2 (of persons) having visionary ideas; dreamy.” Well, at least Premier Campbell is being honest about his political approach to government. May dreams and hyperbole be our anodynes against the harsh realities of evictions and double digit rent increases. I wish the tenants of The Berkeley and Seafield Apartments fortitude and success in their respective, REALISTIC battles for justice.
