Why are some people outraged over the price of admission to a foreign nation's national parks? We have bigger fish to fry at home. 180,000 NBers with no doctor and 13,000 with no home for starters. Let's be outraged over this.

And Holt Liberals are doing it now. The first big DTI announcement was a big fix in a Liberal riding. In the end, roads are getting fixed and we all benefit from that. Let's focus on healthcare.

13,000 wait for housing.
180,000 (and growing) wait for a doctor.
Why has there been so little action? People are desperate.

My sister asked me last week if I could babysit due to her kids having yet *another* PD tomorrow. I cannot fathom why these teachers need so many. These PD days are always conveniently on either a Friday or the Friday of a long weekend, too. It's no wonder so many parents are livid.

My Alberta cousins will tell you that the idea of separatism is far more than just a scare tactic. The Prairies are frustrated with eastern Canada in a big way.
Danielle Smith built a Frankenstein monster of separatism to scare Ottawa into building a pipeline. She got her deal with the feds, but now we get to see if she can dismantle the monster before it becomes sentient and terrorizes the villagers
Danielle Smith is delivering her keynote address to the UCP Convention at 10am. Based on the reception that she had yesterday, I will be watching the crowd as much as the speaker.

I've been following this, and unless I missed something, the only change was to fund a new physical space for the existing clinic. How is that "increasing" access to healthcare?

I can't help but sympathize for the people in the Forest Hill community up in Fredericton. This news is troubling:
"We have had several circumstances...where the neighbourhood has been in danger because tenants lost control of their homes, and the criminal elements that took over their homes."

Yes! My Walmart app will not work if I'm connected to Nofrills wifi!!!! It's how I compare prices.
Earlier, someone here posted about not being able to access the internet on their phone while in a big box store.
The theory is that they dont want you to be able to compare prices with other stores.
I can confirm that the No Frills store in Fredericton is doing this.
