I read with interest the comments of Harry Baglole in the Dec. 6 issue of The Guardian, about his idea of promoting our province in relationship to tourism by inviting everyone to come home for a visit in what could be a ‘Come Home Year’ in 2007.
His idea has merit and is really a resurrection of what was used by the capital city more than 100 years ago. I have in my history archives a booklet labelled ‘Souvenir Map and Guide, Home Comers Week, July 1905, Charlottetown, P.E.
