It's so galling to see @pcnbca say NB gov't has become "bloated" in 10 months -- after 6 years of them starving it and letting services crumble. We remember when we had the 3rd highest COVID death rate in North America with a $730 million surplus. Yeah, it's just politics but😤.

After last week's story about a growing deficit, Holt and Herron are quick to mention the $40 million investment in new firefighting equipment that has helped beat down the wildfires. New Brunswickers will be allowed back in the woods on Crown land as of midnight tonight.
