Sean Howard - Step up and take action.

As you heard in the news, the Main a Dieu Community Development Association is calling on the province to step up and take action on the MV Miner. The group had planned to host a summit this evening to come up with a new plan for removing the vessel from Satarie Island. The intent was to bring together government officials and companies interested in doing the salvage work. The summit was cancelled last week after the group learned the provincial minister of Natural Resources wouldn't be there. Instead, it held a news conference this afternoon. Sean Howard is a member of the community development association.
