During his seven years as Premier, Newfoundland and Labrador was transformed from a “have not” into a “have” province under the charismatic and unflinching leadership of Danny Williams. He was legendary for his honesty and street battles with Stephen Harper fighting for the rights of Newfoundlanders. Through revealing back room anecdotes and in–depth interviews the film Danny tells the story of how Williams battled Ottawa and Big Oil alike to ensure that the province received a fair share for its abundant natural resources.
