(Fisheries Minister Rick Doucet)
Fisheries Minister and Charlotte the Isles MLA Rick Doucet is refuting a Conservative MLA’s claim that new health rules could spell the end of church suppers in the province.
Wayne Steeves, the Conservative M-L-A for Albert says the Liberals are waiting until after the election to bring the new regulations into being.
Doucet tells CHSJ News there is absolutely no truth to this.
He says it’s irresponsible and misleading and calls this move typical of the Conservatives.
Meanwhile, The Province’s Chief Medical Officer of Health says there are no plans to prevent churches from holding suppers.
Dr. Eilish Cleary tells CHSJ News safety procedures need to be followed closely at these events. Cleary says these suppers are good for public health.
