It was a real pleasure to bring greetings to the Rollo Bay Bluegrass and Old Time Music Festival. And who is the President of the PEI Bluegrass and Old Time Music Society, and MC of the event? None other than Shirley Smedley Jay – who just also happens to be the Executive Director of the […]
Make Fixing Roads A Priority
When it comes to getting #backtobasics with priorities for spending taxpayer money, infrastructure, especially roads, is at the top of most Islanders’ list. That’s why it upsets me that there are still roads littered with potholes – and it’s July. Not only to bad roads cause damage to cars, but they impact tourism, they influence […]

Instances of drivers passing school buses with lights flashing, travelling too fast through communities, and drunk driving are far too common and […]

Lack of enough healthy food results in physical and mental problems – this impacts our happiness, well-being, ability to work, need for […]
MADD Monument and Mental Health
MADD is putting up a monument / memorial on PEI – so MADD Central president Crystal Costain Gillis and I were out looking for potential sites. At the Swimming Rock in Stanley Bridge we both commented on the Island’s beauty and peacefulness that sometimes we take for granted. It reminded me of those Islanders that […]
