Luckily, it fit perfectly in the far end of the room where we put up the New Brunswick plate and reprogrammed the clock so we could display the provincial debt.
CBC, Global, and three local radio stations met us there for photographs and interviews. Kevin also did a pre-recorded interview for the CBC's News Maker program - a 30 minute Q&A with the debt clock running in the background.
Before Doug opened up shop for the lunch rush, we loaded the clock back into the trailer so the tables could be moved back into place. Thanks again for having the debt clock make a visit at Garrison Ale House!
Next we went and got the vehicle washed. It's amazing how dirty this thing gets driving around. After that it off to the Legislature where we met a reporter from Canada East Newspapers. They took some shots of the clock both in the trailer with the federal debt numbers running, and then with the clock out of the trailer and re-programmed to show the provincial debt. We pulled the generator out of the trailer and fired it up on the lawn so we could get a good shot of the provincial debt with the legislature in the background.
Security guards from the legislature eventually wandered over to us to ask what we were doing and why we were taking up 3 parking spots with empty meters, (not to mention running the generator on the lawn). They only wanted to know if we were going to plug the meters, but after explaining we were just stopping for a quick photo, they let us finish up and get on our way.
