Harold Wright says back in 1984 then Trudeau cabinet minister Romeo Leblanc was to make a three million dollar announcement for Partridge Island that was cancelled. Then on two separate occasions, the city turned down offers of 9 million dollars.
Wright tells CHSJ News Partridge Island has been neglected for years and the vandalism over the past five years has been worse than during the previous 50.
The money went instead to Pier 21 in Halifax where a museum was built.
