This week, the Mass Casualty Commission is taking a break from its examination of the facts and circumstances of the events in Portapique on April 18th and 19th of 2020. And out of respect for the families, Colchester North MLA Tom Taggart is also taking time to reflect. He currently represents the region that includes the tiny community where the events unfolded two years ago. At the time, he was a municipal councillor for the area. He was part of a ceremony last week that saw Portapique and its residents being presented with the Lieutenant Governor's Community Spirit award. That is the topic he was willing to discuss. That and the resilience of the people who still live there and call it home.
