Myers and MacNeill, Because Life Is Local, Episode 6
We cover a lot of ground...Is Steven Myers PEI's true prophet (with apologies to Fiddler MacDonald)? Is picking a fight with Ottawa good politics and what happens when Ottawa picks a fight with us? With budgets in every province near breaking, is it time for Atlantic Canada to dream big on regional cooperation? Another week, more public outrage over Lantz government cuts and people are asking why prioritize the NHL over children. All that and more....plus our Stars of the Week.PEI's favourite political podcast.
