New Transit to Cavendish and Area!
One of the biggest concerns of employers in District 18 Rustico-Emerald is the ability to get enough employees during the tourist season. One reason is that people are available to work, but don’t have the ability to get to where they are needed in New Glagsow, North Rustico, Cavendish and Stanley Bridge. It is great […]
EI Regions on PEI
This is a federal government issue, but one I get questions about. There are two Employment Insurance (EI) regions on PEI, and they have different “characteristics” based on their different unemployment rates (for period Feb 12, 2017 to Mar 11, 2017 below): Charlottetown (7.6% unemployment rate) Prince Edward Island (13.3% unemployment rate) Here is the […]

The Minister said people should “Call our office right away.” […]

One of the most frustrating set of issues I have to deal with as an MLA are those surrounding health care. First off, the separation of the […]
Trades Training Money Needed
Reviewing the 2017/2018 capital budget, and just confirmed that the “Trades Training Capital” budget for education on PEI will remain static – or “in maintenance mode” as I call it – at $250,000 per year. Really no new expansions planned. Trades are in high demand in the workplace, and there are many students that […]
Reliable High-speed Internet Needed
Here are my questions on lack of high-speed internet – one of the biggest issues in D18 Rustico-Emerald. Questions include: Why are the terms of the Bell Aliant contract not being enforced? Why is Bell-Aliant allowed to charge the same rate for all DSL accounts – regardless of how fast? (e.g. high-speed internet rates for […]
MacLauchlan Has Already Chosen “FPTP + Leaders”
I’m going to make a prediction with regards to PEI’s plebiscite on electoral reform we are voting on right now (read up on it at this link www.yourchoicepei.ca). The MacLauchlan government isn’t necessarily going to honour the results of the plebiscite. MacLauchlan wants FPTP + leaders. With it, he gets his seat automatically and is […]
