Progressive Conservative Leader Blaine Higgs says there is no deal between his party and the People's Alliance to form government, despite suggestions by Premier Brian Gallant and a statement from the People's Alliance. On Friday, People's Alliance Kris Austin agreed to provide stability for a Progressive Conservative minority government on a "bill-by-bill basis" for 18 months. A People's Alliance release issued Friday suggested a formal agreement had been struck. "Mr. Gallant wants people to believe that I have a secret agenda and I made a deal with the People's Alliance," Higgs said. "The question is: is that deal supported by the entire Progressive Conservative caucus and the entire People's Alliance caucus?"
