Thank You, Lawrence For more than 35 years, Lawrence MacAulay has been a force for Prince Edward Island. Today, as he announces his well-earned retirement, I want to take a moment to recognize his remarkable legacy and the impact he’s had on our province. Lawrence has been involved in almost every aspect of Island economic and political life for decades. His accomplishments are too many to mention here, but he consistently showed his love for Prince Edward Island and has always worked tirelessly to push PEI forward, to create opportunities, and to never settle for the status quo. From the halls of Parliament to his famous kitchen table in Midgell, Lawrence has been a champion for farmers, workers, veterans, and every Islander who needed someone in their corner. And everyone knows that his life-long love, Frances, has always been by his side as partner and his most trusted advisor. Thank you, Lawrence and Frances, for your service, your leadership, your friendship, and your unwavering commitment to this Island we all love.

We use over 5,000 lbs of the freshest PEI potatoes per week from @EastPointPotato to make our hand cut fries for your perfection @fin_folk_food There is a lot of work before they hit your table, keep them cool, wash them down, cut them up, soak them in cooler overnight, let them air dry, fry for 5 minutes, let them cool down, refry them and garnish with special salt and do our best to get them to your table hot… it’s a labour of Love at FiN Folk Food

Why would a PEI Senator vote against helping farmers in PEI and across our Country? @JohnBarlowMP @PierrePoilievre @Lianne_Rood

Thank you, Senator's Downe and Francis, for voting for farmers. Shame on Senator MacAdam. @PierrePoilievre
CPC common-sense Bill #C234 aims to provide relief to Canadian #farmers struggling with Trudeau's #CarbonTax. On Tuesday, Trudeau-appointed Senators shamefully succeeded in playing political games with Cdn farmers’ livelihoods by amending the Bill. 📧📞sencanada.ca/en/senators/

Happy Birthday to my Dad today. 92 years young! Sharp as a tack and fit as a fiddle. It would be a challenge for anyone to beat him in a game of cards or stacking wood!
