What happened
Following a presentation by the Charlottetown Curling Club regarding a new multi-purpose building, Mayor Philip Brown suggested collaboration between Charlottetown, Stratford, and Cornwall for a capital area project. Separately, fire departments in P.E.I. are experiencing budget strain due to skyrocketing diesel costs and tariffs, with the minimum price for diesel in P.E.I. reaching $2.55 a litre.
