Problems with Seniors Housing Program wait lists, assessment process, and lack of a long-term plan are eroding confidence in government. “Islanders are angry, and rightly so. They want to trust that the government is working in a fair manner in their best interest. With seniors housing this is simply not the case”, says Trivers. In […]
It’s Unanimous – Release the Water Act
During public consultations, environment Minister Robert Mitchell committed to bringing the Water Act to the floor of the legislature in the spring 2017 sitting unless “political reasons” did not allow.

Bringing In The Traps 2017
The spring lobster season came to an end on June 30th in North Rustico. I must have done too good a job last year, because Joey Gauthier asked me back to help him land his gear 🙂 Seriously though, what a privilege to be on the crew of the “Julie Ann Jamie” as we hauled […]
