Scott Report – Monday, October 15, 2021
- a look at the past week and the week ahead
Scott started the week enjoying Thanksgiving at home in Cheverie, and then was in the constituency and Halifax for meetings for the remainder of the week. The week culminated with an aborted attempt to paddle across Lake Pisiquid in the annual Windsor-West Hants Pumpkin Regatta. A Halifax Daily News report summed it up best: “My best advice for anyone doing this race is to use a pumpkin that floats, laughed Brison.”
