Dear Lord, @PEIFerries. Get your act together. Cancelled crossings because of Confederation mechanic issues and new ferry docked in Pictou. One ferry is not a trustworthy service. #pei #HereWeGoAgain
And it is a race to be the next leader of PC Party of PEI and Island Premier. Mark Ledwell joins Cory Deagle in the race to replace Dennis King, creating a fascinating contrast for party voters. #peipoli ledwellmark.com/why-im-runni…
Zero data to support the deal. Occupancy down 3 per cent last year. Secrecy on who got free tickets. #Boondoggle
The NHL deal has cost taxpayers $9 million. Govt responds to criticism with spin & secrecy. Harvey Sawler has spent decades in tourism marketing at the highest levels. He doesn't mix words. The deal is disastrous. #peipoli #nhl peicanada.com/eastern_graphi…
Mark Carney's first act as PM is to snub PEI, and our traditional seat in cabinet. #peipoli
It only took hours for PEI Finance Minister to cave to public pressure on elimination of liquor trade barriers. #peipoli #patronage #silos #TeamCanada
A lot of PEI Conservatives are not happy that former Premier Dennis King jumped ship for a plum patronage post. #PoliticsOldSchool #peipoli
Will the Liberal prime minister appoint former PEI PC Premier Dennis King Irish ambassador tomorrow, just weeks before a fed election that could elect a Conservative Party King went out of his way to distance himself from? Bet King will vote Liberal. #peipoli
Lawrence MacAulay retires after 36 years as Cardigan MP #pei peipoli peicanada.com/eastern_graphi…
Cory Deagle is quitting cabinet to run for leadership of the PC Party and be PEI’s next premier. The Montague-Kilmuir MLA is the first candidate to come forward since Dennis King quit Feb 20. #peipoli #TheRaceIsOn
In the dying days of Premier King's tenure, Pam Williams, his former Chief of Staff, was handed a 10 year appointment as CEO of IRAC. Next to CEO of the PEI Liquor Commission, there is no cushier patronage plum. Watch for notice in next update of Orders in Council #peipoli
This is the bums in the seat test. #FailureIf there was a shining light in tourism, it was a record cruise ship year, which has nothing - as in not one passenger - to do with the NHL.

This is the best summary of the current geopolitical situation I have seen. Sir Alex Younger was head of MI6 between 2014 and 2020. Really worth watching.
He is working harder to unify professional golf than hold war criminal Putin accountable. The President is a lapdog for Putin and @elonmusk Leadership it is not. Cowardice perhaps.
