International Women’s Day 2026

March 8, 2026 by Brad Trivers

On International Women’s Day, I’m proud to recognize the women of PEI and especially the work they do simply because they care.

January 8, 2026 by Brad Trivers

Brad Trivers speaks at the Standing Committe on Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, questioning the accountability of Maritime Electric for the lack of electricity capacity that may causing rolling brownouts and blackouts.

MECL has dropped the ball on their duty to provide electricity to Islanders – a legislated duty that gives them a monopoly and pays their shareholders an over 9% guaranteed return based on the value of assets they own (see IRAC Order UE23-04 https://irac.pe.ca/wp-content/uploads/Order-UE23-04.pdf).

April 3, 2025 by Brad Trivers

Brad Trivers speaks in the legislative assembly of PEI asking questions about building on private roads

On April 3, 2025 I questioned Minister Steven Myers about the lack of logic and enforcement regarding the ban on year-round homes and ADUs on private roads, noting that illegal development is rampant while rule-abiding constituents are penalized.
