Mr. Speaker, good things are happening in Prince Edward Island. I rise in the House to congratulate the new leader of the Liberal Party of P.E.I., Mr. Wayne Carew, who was formally declared leader at a convention in Charlottetown on Friday evening of last week.
Mr. Carew is a dynamic and extremely talented individual with experience in both private business and senior public administration. Island Liberals are enthusiastic about the prospects of his leadership.
I attended last Friday's convention, an uplifting spirited event, which also included a tribute to retiring leader the hon. Keith Milligan. The mood was very upbeat and positive. It is clear that the Liberal Party of P.E.I. is again on the move. That spells great things and great tidings for the nation, for Canada.
Our thanks to Keith, and our congratulations to Carew.
