An Island man who sexually abused a teenage girl has been sentenced to seven years in federal prison.
Nicholas James Gallant, 38, of Charlottetown pleaded guilty to two charges: sexual exploitation of a person age 14 to 18, and sexual touching.
The incidents took place in Charlottetown over a period of time beginning around June, 2019. The victim's identity is protected by court order.
Chief Provincial Court Judge Jeff Lantz handed down the seven-year prison sentence Dec. 20.
Gallant had been in custody since his arrest by Charlottetown police last year.
P.E.I.'s Public Schools Branch is looking for 50 substitute bus drivers, and it'll be recruiting at three job fairs on Saturday, June 8. The job fairs are located at the Atlantic Superstore in Montague, Royalty Crossing in Charlottetown, and the bus parking lot of Three Oaks Senior High in Summerside. All three run from 9 a.m. until noon. Dave Gillis, the director of transportation and risk management for the Public Schools Branch, said the number of substitute drivers they're hiring isn't unusual. "We are always looking for more. Our drivers tend to have an older demographic," he said.
