Episode Synopsis

Across the province, people are remembering the lives lost and the lives affected by the events that started in Portapique three years ago today. And while the Premier is asking for a moment of silent reflection, the Prime Minister is reminding us that “the pain, trauma, and heartbreaking loss will never truly go away, but today and every day, we stand with you.” Tom Taggart was a municipal councillor representing the area when the rampage happened April 18 and 19th, 2020. He is now the MLA for Colchester North and wants to talk about the strength of the community and how he hopes it doesn’t define them forever.
