PREMIER TO MEET WITH PROVINCIAL AND TERRITORIAL COLLEAGUES AT COUNCIL MEETING

CHARLOTTETOWN, PEI -- This week’s meeting of the Council of the Federation offers an opportunity for Prince Edward Island to discuss pressing national issues, says Premier Robert Ghiz.
“I look forward to meeting with my provincial and territorial counterparts, because it allows me to place Island issues in a national context,” Premier Ghiz said.
The Premier leaves today for the annual meeting of the Council of the Federation. This year’s meeting will be chaired by Québec Premier Jean Charest, and takes place in historic Québec City.
During their meetings on July 16-18, provincial and territorial premiers will be discussing labour market, trade and climate change issues, all of which are important for Prince Edward Island. A closing news conference is scheduled for Friday, July 18."
