Today, I was so proud to announce a new medical school for Cape Breton.
The Campus will focus on training more Nova Scotia physicians, especially in rural Nova Scotia.

David Dingwall and Brian Mulroney have served Nova Scotians and Canadians for decades, inside and outside of the House of Commons. Great to exchange a few words with them tonight in Halifax before delivering remarks at Cape Breton University’s President’s Leadership Dinner.
To NS students, parents, teachers & staff. There are tons of CoVID infections around. NS Pediatricians strongly recommend we continue masking till school ends in 4 weeks. Protect yourselves, your classmates & teachers, your parents & family. Our healthcare system is strained.
This would be a monumental win for our community. Please register at https://t.co/pPaMIWBf2c and save the date May 6/7 when voting opens.
