Carolyn Bertram, MLA Speaker of the Legislative Assembly Province House, Charlottetown Dear Madam Speaker: I have the pleasure of presenting the 2013 Annual Report of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island, which includes the 2013 report of the Prince Edward Island Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association. This report highlights the various activities of the Office of the Legislative Assembly and the Office of the Clerk for the period January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2013. Respectfully yours, Charles H. MacKay Clerk of the Legislative Assembly and Secretary, PEI Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association 5 Our History The modern Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island was created in 1893 with the amalgamation of the House of Assembly and the Legislative Council, but its history reaches back to the late eighteenth century. Walter Patterson, the first governor of the Island, was appointed by the crown in 1770, and he, in turn, appointed a council of seven to help him administer the colony’s affairs. The first election of members to a House of Representatives was on July 4, 1773, with the first meeting taking place in Charlottetown, July 7-17, 1773. During the early years, the members met in private homes and taverns until, in 1847, the House of Assembly began to meet in Province House, then called the Colonial Building. Just a few years later, and following a ten year campaign, Prince Edward Island achieved responsible government, a major milestone. In 1864, the Charlottetown Conference happened in the Island’s capital, and eventually led to the formation of Canada in 1867. Prince Edward Island joined the Canadian Confederation later on July 1, 1873, nearly a hundred years to the day from its first meeting of elected representatives. In 1893, the House of Assembly and the Legislative Council were merged to form the Legislative Assembly, with fifteen dual-member ridings. This remained largely unchanged for many years, until the creation of 27 single- member consitituencies in 1996. There have been major changes to the Legislative Assembly since its creation, among them the secret ballot for provincial elections and the enfranchisement of women. Technological updates have come to the Legislative Assembly in recent years as well, including the establishment of a Hansard service, televising proceedings, and a presence on the Internet and in social media. 6 Our Services The Office of the Legislative their parliamentary functions by facilities to Members.

However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable. Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Ms. Edelman’s political presence had already been established by the time her father began his term as an MLA. In 1988, she became a Whitehorse city councillor, a position she held until 1994. In her 1991 reelection, she received more votes for her council seat than mayor Bill Weigand received. Following her time on city council, she was elected to the Selkirk Elementary School council. In the 1996 territorial election, she ran and won in the Riverdale South riding.

A two-body Legislature is known as a bicameral Legislature. PEI’s first Governor, Walter Patterson, was instructed to establish a House of Assembly in which representatives were popularly elected (unlike Council members, who were appointed). The combination of a Council and House was a requirement for the enactment of legislation under British law. Though Patterson became Governor in 1769, the first House of Assembly was not elected until 1773. Early sessions of the Assembly met in private homes and taverns. A Sergeant-at-Arms of the time commented that this made for a “damn queer parliament”. By 1825, the House of Assembly was working on establishing its rights and privileges, particularly in terms of self- regulation and authority.
