Ep 25: Feat. MLAs Michele Beaton & Bloyce Thompson
On this week's episode we have both MLA Michele Beaton and Minister Bloyce Thompson. Michele Beaton, MLA for Mermaid-Stratford and Chair of the Standing Committee on Public Accounts, discussed her past year as an elected official, navigating through covid-19, and the passing of her bill 'An Act to Amend the Auditing Act' which received unanimous consent in the PEI legislature. Bloyce Thompson, PEI's Minister of Agriculture & Land and Justice & Public Safety as well as Attorney General, discusses his first year in office, managing pressures of covid-19, and how agriculture can rebound post-covid. Blake and Sam also discuss Statistics Canada's latest data on GDP growth and what to expect during the remaining days of the PEI legislature. Presented by Confederation Group.
