@DavidCCoon asked the question everyone is thinking. “What is the point of this Throne Speech? Are we going into an election? Without a clear answer we’re stuck. Everything has come to a crashing halt. That’s not leadership. The premier needs to come clean today.”

Coon says a Green government would be willing to run "short-term" deficits in order to spend enough to address health care "crisis." On Sept. 30 a poll for Brunswick News said 55 % of respondents would accept deficits to address health care vs. 23 % who would not.

#nbpoli Vote. If you want to see a change, you need to change your vote. Many will vote blindly out of party loyalty - please, get informed and vote. You can vote at any returning office in your riding from now until election day on October 21st. @ElectionsNB

THE ONLY REASON YOU NEED TO VOTE



I saw Ken Tobias perform at Centenary Queen’s Square United Church. I was 12. It was a fund raising concert in 1970 for the starving in Biafra. He was not only talented but kind and giving.

Sad to note the passing of Saint John singer songwriter Ken Tobias. His music was part of the soundtrack of the ‘70’s. “Stay Awhile” by “The Bells” & his own hits are still heard on Canadian radio. “I Just Want to Make Music”, he sang & he surely did. Thanks, Ken. @CTVAtlantic

🌞 Summer's here, and gas prices are up, just as we're planning family trips. While refineries profit, we keep paying more. Premier Higgs has made gas even pricier to cover Irving Oil's cleanup costs. As Premier, I'd cancel this unnecessary tax to ease your burden. 🚗💸

1/ Politicians in Canada have been promising proportional representation for 100 years. 2021 marked the 100th anniversary of the first federal government elected on such a promise. 🧵

In Public Accounts this morning, Vitalité outlined how they presented recommendations to cabinet in 2022 to give retention bonuses to nurses, aimed at reducing need for travel nurses. For 2 years the Higgs government has refused. Watch here: legnb.ca/en/webcasts/10…

Tomorrow is eclipse day - get your protective shades out.


Proud to see you sharing your wisdom with the world.

I’m currently in Umeå, Sweden for Littfest. It’s a very special honour to share this story of Indigenous resilience and regeneration in the homelands of the Sámi. We share many of the same struggles and triumphs ✊🏽

Based on yesterday's @NBLA_ALNB, it sounds like @susanholt is hoping to be included on this poster as a future spike the hike premier. Maybe she can connect with the @pcnbca for some fancy slogans. Falls in line with her efforts to distance herselft from the Liberal brand.

I join Conservative and Liberal Premiers from across Canada in standing with Pierre Poilievre's call to spike the hike. British Columbians simply cannot afford another David Eby NDP carbon tax hike.
