Egmont Candidates Take the Stage in Spirited Debate

Egmont District Federal Debate Draws Strong Community Engagement

The Greater Summerside Chamber of Commerce, in collaboration with the Harbourfront Theatre and CBDC, was proud to host the 2025 Egmont District Federal Debate on Tuesday, April 15th at the Harbourfront Theatre.

With a full house and an engaged audience, the evening brought together all four confirmed candidates for a dynamic and respectful exchange of ideas on the key issues facing the Egmont District:

  • Carol Rybinski, New Democratic Party

  • Logan McLellan, Conservative Party of Canada

  • Ranald MacFarlane, Green Party of Canada

  • Robert Morrissey, Liberal Party of Canada

Moderated professionally, the debate offered candidates an opportunity to present their platforms and respond to questions submitted by members of the local business community and residents. Topics ranged from economic development and healthcare access to climate initiatives, infrastructure investments, and support for small businesses.

The Chamber extends its sincere thanks to the candidates for their participation, to those who submitted thoughtful questions, and to everyone who attended or followed along. We also wish to thank our partners—Harbourfront Theatre and CBDC—for helping make this event a success.

Events like this are vital to a healthy democracy, providing a platform for meaningful dialogue and informed decision-making. We’re proud to support voter engagement and advocate for issues that matter to our members and the broader Egmont community.

Stay tuned for more upcoming events and initiatives as we continue to support a strong, informed, and connected business community here in Summerside and beyond.
