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?
Access to primary health care in the St. Stephen region is increasing with the expansion of a collaborative care team. Our $3.6 million investment will help in the growth of the Charlotte County Collaborative Wellness Centre,

Cancel the EUB.
BREAKING: New Brunswickers will NOT get the eight-cent-per-litre cut to gas prices on Monday that the Holt government promised

Instead, EUB issues interim order siding with industry’s call to cancel it out with an equivalent increase

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.

I need to add this to my Fredericton "must try" list. Looks delicious.

You can't disconnect people in the winter. You just can't, it's cruel. Shut them off in May, absolutely, but not January.

Right now we have a public system that is barely functioning and kills thousands of people each year while they wait for care. My view is there is a place for private care in the public system, while still maintaining equitable access for all.
Universal Healthcare means one high-quality system for everyone, regardless of income.

Two-tier means two systems: faster care for people who can pay, slower (and less accessible) care for those who can't.

Danielle Smith effectively switched Alberta to Two-Tier yesterday.
