Quebec tourists will be allowed to drive through New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island to get to the Magdalen Islands as of June 26. As part of the new regulations, announced Saturday in a release, Quebec tourists will need to fill out a government form and have proof of passage on the ferry to and from Souris, P.E.I. Magdalen Islands Mayor Jonathan Lapierre had been lobbying for Quebecers to be allowed to vacation in the area, as many families depend on the tourism industry for income. Joël Arseneau, the MNA for the Magdalen Islands, had also called on the governments to lift the restrictions. I would say close to a quarter of the working population is involved in tourism," Arseneau said Saturday.
