Dennis King went from journalist and comedic storyteller to leader of the Prince Edward Island Progressive Conservative Party. In May 2019 he was elected Premier of PEI’s first ever minority government on a platform that promised to throw aside partisan politics, a hallmark of the Island’s political culture. It’s been steep learning curve and an eventful year which includes responding to a tropical storm, and COVID-19. In this candid interview, the Premier talks about his fears and successes and why Canada’s smallest province was ready to break the political mold.
