Long Term Care Bed Shortage Requires Innovative Thinking
“Seniors deserve respect, compassion and self-reliance and the option to stay in their own community” stated Prince Edward Island Progressive Conservative Leadership candidate Brad Trivers. “Islanders are ending up in Hospital beds instead of long term care close to their friends, neighbours and loved ones. Keeping seniors in acute care beds for long periods of […]
Government Cannot Be Trusted With Seniors Housing
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.

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 […]
Beach Parking at North Rustico Harbour Blocking Traffic
People park at the North Rustico Harbour, especially on Breakwater Road, to get access to the beach (free). The road narrows down to one lane, is sometimes blocked. This causes problems for locals in accessing their property, and there are many times where a fire truck or ambulance may not be able to get through […]
Support for Island Communities
Island communities are strong and will continue to thrive if our government gets back to basics – supporting communities by focusing on Infrastructure (roads, affordable energy, high speed internet), Education and Health Care.
