Argyle MLA mystified over support for Railway, not Yarmouth Ferry

Argyle MLA Chris d’Entremont

The MLA for Argyle says the NDP is giving a message to people on the South Shore that they’re not important. Chris d’Entremont is reacting over the Dexter government’s recent $2-million a year investment into the Cape Breton and Central Nova Scotia Railway, with no support for the Yarmouth Ferry. He says Premier Dexter should apologize for his actions.

“I think a good government is also one that would recognize its mistakes and stand down to them and say, you know, maybe we were wrong here. But, to take a Happy Days kind of look at it, when Fonzie couldn’t say he was wrong, I think that’s what we’ve got now. We’ve got a Premier that really doesn’t want to go back on his word to admit things.”

d’Entremont says he can’t explain how the NDP decided that a railway was more important than a ferry because they’re both important economic links. He believes the Premier should find a solution to get the ferry service back before its too late.
