Soon to “Be… gone from this place”

Here is one thing that the Conservative government of NB is doing right: getting rid of the NB provincial slogan “Be… in this place.” Its French equivalent was equally harrowing: “Etre… ici on le peut.”  When one thinks that the previous (Shawn Graham) government charged the taxpayers of NB $229,000 on “research,” consultation and development of this brand, one is entitled to speculate about how many seconds the brand team needed to come up with this inaneness.  22.9 seconds?
