ICYMI: Green MLA Matt MacFarlane told the @peileg he was foregoing one of his questions during question period to give the health minister @markmclanepei the opportunity to apologize for the broken campaign promise — but no apology came. #peipoli https://t.co/ec9HnJF1Jo

PEI needed 10K new housing units over the 5 years of this program: it delivered 69. “The government has consistently overstated their commitment to addressing our housing crisis here, & they have consistently underperformed when it comes to actually getting stuff done.” #peipoli

As more and more Islanders see their electricity bills continue to rise, MLA Matt MacFarlane is calling for an independent audit of Maritime Electric’s billing and rate-setting process to ensure Islanders are being charged fairly and accurately. #peipoli https://t.co/Y0V0l73R5y

MLA Matt MacFarlane is calling on his legislative colleagues to continue the important work of government through standing committees, despite Premier Rob Lantz’s decision to prorogue the legislature and stall key legislative business. #peipoli https://t.co/99ZYwsb9I4

The delay in the report's release shows a growing lack of fiscal responsibility and transparency from @dennyking gov.

“It's deeply concerning that we're seeing unprecedented spending, but Islanders aren't feeling the benefits.” - @peterbevanbaker #peipoli https://t.co/gGQCOgXQ9M

The millions of dollars (anywhere from $7.5-$8.4M!) going to the NHL belongs to Islanders and Islanders have a right to know where their $ is going. Enough with the wasteful spending and secrecy, @dennyking Islanders are fed up. @peipoli

[PEI Green Caucus @peigreencaucus]

The @dennyking government's long overdue 2024-2025 Fall Fiscal and Economic Update outlines record spending on healthcare and social initiatives, yet fails to translate into tangible improvements for Islanders. Read more 👇#peipoli https://t.co/6wML25g3tx

Government has to make sure that services and programs to help seniors stay in their homes are easily accessible…because right now…they are not! #peipoli

[PEI Green Caucus @peigreencaucus]

While the @dennyking government has implemented several programs aimed at supporting seniors, @karlabernardD12 hears from many seniors across the Island who struggle to access these programs. Read more 👇 #peipoli

Last week Islanders learned internal medicine doctors at the QEH are limiting referrals. Now the QEH pediatrics clinic is also restricting services, operating at only 60% of the required physician complement. Read more 👇 #peipoli https://t.co/30JXSM6pyx

Will Health PEI's KPMG contract end up being more wasteful spending of Islanders’ money, and yet another report that gathers dust on a shelf? #peipoli https://t.co/D8B6VHTgqC

[PEI Green Caucus @peigreencaucus]

MLA Matt MacFarlane says @InfoPEI should have taken action sooner on LTC beds. "We knew there was an aging population — that's obvious. We know what comes with an aging population: the need for more beds for long-term care and for nursing care." #peipoli

Yesterday’s news from @Health_PEI on the overcapacity of our healthcare system, as well as the release of the long overdue 2023-2024 Health PEI Annual Report, paints a grim picture of our healthcare system under the King government. Read more 👇#peipoli https://t.co/1UdhBnz158

[PEI Green Caucus @peigreencaucus]

The new limit on access to internal medicine at the QEH will be devastating for Islanders who have already been struggling to get care.
"This is a cut to services. So we are cutting Islanders' access to health care." - @karlabernardD12 #peipoli

From @peterbevanbaker: @MECLPEI's announcement it will spend almost half a billion on equipment upgrades is generating more questions than answers around PEI's commitment to climate action, renewable energy, and the cost to Island ratepayers. #peipoli

"It's one thing to say we offer the service here in PEI, but it's quite another to say that you're gonna have to wait 2 years to get it. And in the meantime, you're going to be completely incapacitated.” - MLA Matt MacFarlane #peipoli

[Louise Martin @LouiseMartinCBC]

While Health P.E.I. says improvements are coming in the new year, the latest batch of statistics from the health authority shows that wait times for MRI scans rose to the highest levels on record in 2024. #PEI #peipoli

That day in the @peileg when I compared @InfoPEI to Secret Santa …. but with a twist. #peipoli #SecretSanta https://t.co/4e6tJhTsm0
