My Grandfather had a Joey Shrine. An assortment of memorabilia including the Joey Coin that sat on a corner shelf as a perpetual reminder of the man who saved Newfoundland and Labrador from itself. Confederation is a topic of much debate. Although I occasionally like to stoke the fires I do keep my pot luke warm when it comes to all matters of the 1949 vote.
