Originally from Skye Glen, Page 2 Inverness County, Gillis has called Sydney home for the last 40 years. About two years after settling in Sydney, where she was working as a nurse, Gillis' eye troubles first developed. A retinal vein occlusion, and complications from it, resulted in glaucoma and damage to the optic nerve. After laser surgery she was left with limited vision in her left eye, but her right eye was still fine. “And then 18 years ago, it hit in the right eye.

  • Community Profile
    COMMUNITY PROFILE The community of Glace Bay can be found hugging the eastern coastline of Cape Breton Island. The island is located on the north eastern tip of Nova Scotia and joined to the mainland by a rock-filled causeway. Alexander Graham Bell, who spent many years living in Cape Breton, once said, " I have seen the Canadian and American Rockies, the Andes, the Alps and the Highlands of Scotland, but for simple beauty, Cape Breton out rivals them all." Bell's sentiment has recently been echoed by a number of travel writers who have extolled Cape Breton not only for its unsurpassed physical beauty but also for the friendliness and generosity of its people. Travel and Leisure Magazine has ranked Cape Breton as the number one (1) island to visit in the continental US and Canada. National Geographic has described Cape Breton as "the most scenic island in the world" and has called it one of the "50 places of a lifetime" to visit. During the 2016 American election campaign the island garnered worldwide attention when a local radio DJ's tongue-in- cheek website suggested Cape Breton as a place for Americans to move if Trump becomes President. The so-called "Trump Bump" was a boom for local tourism. Glace Bay was incorporated as a town in 1901. In 1995, its municipal government was dissolved and Glace Bay joined six (6) other municipalities and the County of Cape Breton to form a larger municipal unit known as the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM). The CBRM covers 2,470 square kilometers and is home to approximately 94,000 residents.

  • Media Scan June 11, 2021
    Media Scan Friday June 11, 2021 Cries for clarity: Tourism groups want firm dates for reopening plan Nova Scotia’s tourism industry has been hit hard by the pandemic, losing $1.6 billion in revenue last year. “We employ 50,000 Nova Scotians, we're back up to about 30,000 so we're still down about 20,000 jobs," says Darlene Grant Fiander with the Tourism Industry Association of Nova Scotia. "We generate about $450,000 in tax revenue for the provincial government, so that pays for health care, education, infrastructure, so it's incredibly important to the economy." Nova Scotia is currently in the first of a five-phase reopening plan. The province is expected to move into phase two next Wednesday. Rankin says Atlantic premiers are discussing possibility of moving up date of travel bubble Nova Scotia Premier Iain Rankin says Atlantic premiers are discussing the possibility of moving up the date for Atlantic travel bubble. Rankin made the comment in an interview with CTV Anchor Steve Murphy on Thursday evening. Here is a partial transcript of that interview. STEVE MURPHY: Nova Scotia is still not putting any firm dates on its reopening plan, saying phases will last two weeks, but businesses and travelers looking for greater certainty are taking some solace in comments from Premier Ian Rankin. Fibre optic internet welcome, but not if it ruins Cabot Trail view An Inverness County resident says she and her neighbours are looking forward to the installation of fibre optic internet service, but not if it comes at the cost of ruining an iconic view along the Cabot Trail.

First, I would like to thank the generous and dedicated donors to the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation. Your support was truly amazing. Your gifts to the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation help purchase priority equipment and fund upgrades to ensure more Cape Bretoners can get the care they need. I would also like to acknowledge the devoted staff of the Foundation. Each member of the team played an important role ensuring a seamless transition in welcoming our new CEO, Brad Jacobs, to the helm of the Foundation team. On behalf of the Board, I extend a thank you to the former CEO, Barbara Stead-Coyle, for her commitment to the Foundation over the past five years and I would like to again welcome Brad, and his family, to Cape Breton.
