June marks the beginning of Pride Month — a time to honour the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, celebrate diversity, and recognize the ongoing work toward equality and inclusion. Pride is both a celebration and a reminder of the importance of creating spaces where everyone feels safe, respected, and able to thrive.

In rural communities like Eastern PEI, inclusion isn’t just a value — it’s a strength. When local businesses embrace diversity, they foster workplaces where people feel welcome, customers feel seen, and innovation can flourish. Inclusive businesses attract talent, strengthen community connections, and contribute to a vibrant, resilient local economy.

At CBDC Eastern PEI, we are committed to being an inclusive and welcoming space for all entrepreneurs. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to start, grow, and succeed in business — and we’re proud to support 2SLGBTQIA+ entrepreneurs and allies across our region.

This month and every month, we celebrate the diversity that makes our communities stronger. Happy Pride Month. 🌈💙
------------------------------------------------------
Le mois de juin marque le début du Mois de la Fierté — un moment pour honorer la communauté 2SLGBTQIA+, célébrer la diversité et reconnaître le travail continu vers l’égalité et l’inclusion. La Fierté est à la fois une célébration et un rappel de l’importance de créer des espaces où chacun se sent en sécurité, respecté et capable de s’épanouir.

Dans les communautés rurales comme l’Est de l’Î.-P.-É., l’inclusion n’est pas seulement une valeur — c’est une force. Lorsque les entreprises locales adoptent la diversité, elles créent des milieux de travail accueillants, renforcent les liens communautaires et favorisent l’innovation. Les entreprises inclusives attirent des talents, bâtissent la confiance et contribuent à une économie locale dynamique et résiliente.

À CBDC Eastern PEI, nous sommes fiers d’être un espace inclusif et accueillant pour tous les entrepreneurs. Nous croyons que chacun mérite la possibilité de démarrer, de développer et de réussir en affaires — et nous sommes heureux de soutenir les entrepreneurs 2SLGBTQIA+ et leurs alliés dans toute notre région.

Ce mois ci, et chaque mois, nous célébrons la diversité qui rend nos communautés plus fortes. Bonne Fierté à toutes et à tous. 🌈💙

CBDC Eastern PEI is pleased to welcome Olivia Bourgeois as our 2026 Summer Student.

We’re excited to have Olivia with us for the summer. She’ll be working closely with several members of our team, so you’ll likely see her around the office or even hear from her directly as she supports our programs and client services.

Please feel free to drop in, say hello, and help us give Olivia a warm welcome.

🚢⚓ Charting a bold course in PEI’s fishing industry ⚓🚢
From learning the ropes to captaining her own vessel, Mindy O’Donnell is proving that determination and passion belong at the helm. 🌊🦞 As captain of the Muriel Sea 1, Mindy is breaking barriers in a traditional industry—with strong community backing from CBDC PEI East every step of the way.

🚢⚓ Tracer une voie audacieuse dans l’industrie de la pêche de l’Î.-P.-É. ⚓🚢
De ses débuts dans le métier à capitaine de son propre navire, Mindy O’Donnell prouve que la détermination et la passion ont leur place à la barre. 🌊🦞 La capitaine du Muriel Sea 1 brise le plafond de verre d’une industrie traditionnelle, grâce à un solide appui de la communauté, celui de la CBDC de l’est de l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard, présente à chaque étape. Son parcours est un puissant rappel que les femmes ont leur place en mer, y compris dans des postes de leadership, au cœur de notre économie côtière. 💙 https://cbdc.ca/fr-ca/stories/mindy-odonnell/

There’s still time to register for next week’s Safety Orientation Responsibilities session in Montague at the Rural Action Centres!
As many local businesses welcome new seasonal staff and gear up for a busy summer, strong safety practices become even more essential.

Workplace safety isn’t just a requirement—it’s a foundation for a healthy, productive team. WCB’s Safety Orientation training helps employers:
• Understand legal responsibilities and worker rights
• Build effective onboarding processes for new hires
• Strengthen safety culture from day one
• Keep accurate training records
• Reduce preventable incidents during peak season

If your business is hiring for summer or refreshing staff roles, this session is a valuable way to set everyone up for success.

Let’s keep Eastern PEI workplaces safe, informed, and ready for the season ahead. 🌞💼
