Island communities continue to benefit from Islanders’ dedication to government agencies, boards and commissions.
In the month of September, 24 new and returning members joined nine boards.
“It’s clear that Islanders have a deep sense of community through volunteerism and their continued commitment to provincial boards. The time and energy appointees dedicate to their role and spend with their fellow board members is a testament to Islanders’ goals of making our communities strong, healthy and safe. To every member, past and present, I am very thankful for your dedication.”
- Premier Dennis King
