by Sources have told Coast 89.7 News that a Cape Breton Regional Councillor has been in hospital in Halifax since last week. Claire Detheridge represents District 4 on Regional Council and is also President of the Union of Nova Scotia Municipalities. There’s still no word on the nature of her condition or treatment. We’ve attempted to contact the Mayor’s office for comment, but our inquiries have yet to be answered. We’ll have more information as it becomes available.
