*PCs will be making 'wrong move' if fracking is allowed outside Sussex without a vote*

Interesting PANB voters against PANB voters !!!

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks you have no idea what you are talking about N'esy Pas?

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks the PANB, the Irving Clan, Corridor Resources, Mr Higgs and definitely Bruce Northrup know why you have teased me several times about this story which appeared in the Kings County Record on June 22, 2004. Even you cannot deny that I definitely mentioned natural gas back then N'esy Pas?

The Unconventional Candidate
By Gisele McKnight

"FUNDY—He has a pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket, a chain on his wallet, a beard at least a foot long, 60 motorcycles and a cell phone that rings to the tune of "Yankee Doodle."

Meet the latest addition to the Fundy ballot—David Amos. The independent candidate lives in Milton, Massachusetts with his wife and two children, but his place of residence does not stop him from running for office in Canada."

"Amos, 52, is running for political office because of his dissatisfaction with politicians. "I've become aware of much corruption involving our two countries," he said. "The only way to fix corruption is in the political forum."

"What he's fighting for is the discussion of issues – tainted blood, the exploitation of the Maritimes' gas and oil reserves and NAFTA, to name a few.

"The political issues in the Maritimes involve the three Fs – fishing, farming and forestry, but they forget foreign issues," he said. "I'm death on NAFTA, the back room deals and free trade. I say chuck it (NAFTA) out the window

NAFTA is the North American Free Trade Agreement which allows an easier flow of goods between Canada, the United States and Mexico

@David Amos

Sussex elected PANB...Is this so hard to understand Davis.

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks you forgot that I ran there to make certain that the liberal McKenna picked to try to spit the vote lost? Well why not ask Bruce Northrup who won N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

* know why you have teased me several times about this story which appeared in the Kings County Record on June 22, 2004. Even you cannot deny that I definitely mentioned natural gas back then N'esy Pas? *

What ?? Your hard to follow, everything you say makes no sense.

David Amos

@Marc Martin "Sussex elected PANB...Is this so hard to understand Davis."

YEA RIGHT

Methinks everybody knows that it is you who makes no sense N'esy Pas?

most people have been led to believe the propaganda on fracking..not in my backyard...wow..all I ask is that you do your homework before you say no to something without any knowledge...I lived in an area for over 30 years with fracking all around me...I have never heard such propaganda as I hear around here..quit cutting your own throats...

Marc Martin

@David Stairs

But you voted for him ? No ?

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks you should have no idea who he voted for N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

Its obvious with all his posts and you don't see him denying it N'esy Pas ?

David Amos

@Marc Martin He explained it to you days ago remember/

Harold Benson

It's the wrong move even in Sussex. They need to hold a referendum on this issue, and bring out the truth about who wants what.

David Amos

@Harold Benson YUP

David Amos

@Harold Benson Methinks somebody should explain to me real slow how Samuel Porter can change his name N'esy Pas?

 
Rosco holt

"Higgs said in August that he'd measure support for development by listening to municipal councils, then letting the consultations "spread out" to surrounding local service districts through open meetings."

Just like when Bruce Fitch did is report promoting amalgamation. It only "spread out" to municipalities.

David Amos

@Rosco holt Methinks Bruce Fitch will soon be the Speaker then he won't say anything political for a while N'esy Pas?

Roger Richard

How can I support the shale gas industry in someone else’s place and not in my back yard?

David Amos

@Roger Richard Methinks no ethical soul could N'esy Pas?

Fred Brewer

@Roger Richard
Exactly! PA is saying its ok in other peoples backyards but not mine. How hypocritical is that?

David Amos

@Roger Richard Methinks its incredibly comical that Trumps evil buddy Rex Tillerson and former Exxon Mobil CEO doesn't want fracking near his backyard N'esy Pas?

Barry Odonnell

About time! New Brunswick is up to it's eyes in debt yet every time someone wants to try to develop resources and create jobs and tax revenue the tree huggers get up in arms. You cannot expect better healthcare and services with no industry to pay for it. Call centers do not cut it.

Robert Brannen

@Barry Odonnell

Hoping that shale gas will be an economic saviour for the New Brunswick economy is a mug's game, as outlined in the linked article on the development of shale gas in the U.S..

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/aug/30/how-the-us-fracking-boom-almost-fell-apart

David Amos

@Robert Brannen Methinks the fracking ship sailed long ago Everybody knows its The Irving Clan who wants the cheap gas for their operations N'esy Pas?

 
Fred Brewer

PA has sold its soul to the devil. Good luck in the next election Kris. I think you are done.

Marc Martin

@Fred Brewer

Ah come one....don't be so bad on your purple leader !!!!

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks you have no idea about the people you opt to insult N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

Insult ? Where do you see an insult in my post?

David Amos

@Marc Martin How many times have you insulted me?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

I have no idea what your talking about Davis.

David Amos

@Marc Martin I have told you before that it is Mr Amos to you Methinks everybody knows that we are far from friends N'esy Pas?

Jeff LeBlanc

@David Amos that's a battle you cannot win I am afraid, I muted him because you cannot reason with someone who refuses to see the other person's side

David Amos

@Jeff LeBlanc He is far worse than that

 
louella woods

Does it not require a vote to lift the moratorium that the Liberals put in place?

Samual Johnston

@louella woods "Technically speaking, the 2015 moratorium was imposed through a regulation of cabinet which could be repealed by cabinet," spokesperson Jean Bertin said in a written statement.

"However, government staff are investigating whether implementing regional resource development and outlining a mechanism for determining support would require amendments to legislation."

David Amos

@louella woods Nope Methinks they did it in the backroom with no legislation. Hence Higgs can reverse it in the same fashion N'esy Pas?

David Amos

@Samual Johnston Sounds like bureaucratic double-talk to me Higgs will get what the Irving Clan wants Methinks everybody knows it is just that simple N'esy Pas?

 
Craig O'Donnell

Where to start? Well David, since the last go-around leading up to an election on the issue of shale gas, dire predictions were made by the CCNB of NB, which you were heading, and they contributed greatly in a PR blitz condemning the practice of fracking. Meanwhile in both BC (with an NDP-Greens coalition government, both saying their avid defenders of the environment) and Alberta (ditto for the NDP government there) fracking has continued unabated. It has also continued unabated in most natural gas/oil areas of the US and worldwide. So why have we had no stories of a major catastrophe taking place in that time?
And now Mr. Austin seems to think that his elected MLA's voice carries more weight than municipalities, their councils, and rural councils. Here I thought the PANB was all about letting these areas decide for themselves?

Marc Martin

@Craig O'Donnell

Let me guess you voted for him ?

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks we don't have to guess who you voted for N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

I voted Liberal, that's not a secret.

David Amos

@Marc Martin Methinks you would not dare to bite the hand that feeds N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

@David Amos

What ? Please form proper phrases so I can understand thanks.

David Amos

@Marc Martin "Its obvious with all his posts and you don't see him denying it N'esy Pas ?"

Methinks those were your words N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

Yeah im French I have an excuse for not having proper grammar, what about ?

@Marc Martin You wish to be excused for being abrasive merely because you are French? Methinks you just made everybody laugh at your nonsense N'esy Pas?

Richard Parks

The PCs say that maybe it will happen, The Green say absolutely no, The Liberals have put it to sleep temporarily, The PANB say " I have no opinion." I will have to wait to see what my riding says." Should he not have have the answer to this already? At least one of his caucus knows where he stands.

David Amos

@Richard Parks Methinks as usual the politicians will do what is best for them and nobody else N'esy Pas?

 
Joe campbell

Before you even think about fracking you spend years in the exploration phase doing seismic. Corridor spent 20 years and over a half billion dollars to get to where they are and they took no shortcuts. SWN Canada who came to explore under a deal with Shawn Graham's liberals were given a sweetheart deal with low royalties . The exploration they did was the easy stuff by using existing roads and trails and geochemistry sampling. The next phase in a search requires allot of people and money when you go from a 2D search to a 3D search.
Personally I think Corridor is only interested in their own little niche in the Sussex area and no other company has a desire to come here based on protests and fear mongering. We will continue to import Saudi Oil and natural gas will begin to flow north from the US on our Northeast pipeline.

David Amos

@Joe campbell Methinks you don't know the Corridor I know N'esy Pas?

Joe campbell

@David Amos Enlighten me, ?N'esy Pas? is this a code

Paul Bourgoin

Wasn't Fracking banned in New Brunswick?
Or should I ask who owns the Land where the Fracking will possibly be tolerated!!

David Amos

@Paul Bourgoin Corridor Resources own the land in Sussex but the Irving Clan are in the background N'esy Pas?

Fred Dee

@Paul Bourgoin banned by politicos, so can be un banned the same way lol

Paul Bourgoin

@David Amos
Are they always like that in Central and Southern New Brunswick?

David Amos 

@Paul Bourgoin The Irving Clan controls this province not just Sussex.

FYI My Father was Max Amos and he is buried in Fundy Royal along with many of my ancestors. When my Father was alive he was the Tax Supervisor of this province. I remember him sending the Sheriff down to the Irving refinery to put chains on the gate in order to make old KC pay his property taxes. BTW after my Father died my Mother married the former Chief Electoral Officer and a proud CoR Party member ask out temporary Premier Mr Higgs and his French Deputy if I am a liar or not

David Amos

@Fred Dee Methinks you should explain to me real slow why you think it is funny to be illegally barred from parliamentary properties while trying to win a seat in the House where common folks are purported served N'esy Pas?

 
Roy Kirk

How much will the province get in royalty payments? I've no objection to selling the asset if the price is right.

Will the companies involve post surety bonds from reputable outfits to hold NB taxpayers harmless if/when things go sideways and a major environmental expenditure is require? If not, are only the taxpayers in the jurisdictions that voted for it on the hook, or do those in jurisdictions that had no say in the decision have to pony up?

Politicians wedded themselves to this resource extraction proposal back when the price was $5 per GJ or more. It might have made some sense then, but at low prices it is too risky.

David Amos

@Roy Kirk "How much will the province get in royalty payments?"

If it the same deal a last time it wiil be next to nothing.

 
Daniel White

Let the ball game begin. Multiple voices calling the game now. Who is on first , what is on second?

David Amos

@Daniel White Methinks you are enjoying the Circus as much as I N'esy Pas?

 

Daniel White

@David Amos Not quite, but it is such serious collision of views, it is comical, and how can it possibly last. Might as well have called an election again after the oct 5 recount. That would have been my choice. It is a no win all around. We have spoken , and created this, so let's try it again.

David Amos

@Daniel White Methinks there will another election very soon I truly believe that Gallant was incredibly dumb to quit today particularly before the Throne Speech because anything can happen in this 3 ring Circus N'esy Pas?

Marc Martin

This is going to be funny, PANB voters with pro-Fracking panels and Sussex PANB supporters with anti-Fracking panels, please let me know where its going to be ill bring the popcorn !!!

John Jude

@Marc Martin
Make sure when you talk about popcorn in French you say maïs soufflé. If you say popcorn when talking with your buddies, you are using an anglicisme, thereby losing your culture and devaluing your language, which in turn will eventually lead to a uni-lingual New Brunswick (which is apparently not something you are willing to tolerate unless it is French). Ditto for hot dogs, "all dressed", steak, and don't even think of asking for "de la laitue" on your burgers; make sure you ask for "de la salade". Don't go looking for the English words in the French dictionary now; you'll find them and be completely disillusioned. In fact, you should probably give up the English language altogether. Please only post in French from now on. Thanks. Or should I say "merci bien mon ami".

Marc Martin

@John Jude

I tough I had to post in English here ? Well that's what your anti-French buddies told me...I am supposed to write in French ? I am impressed that you took the time to construct this little paragraph of yours all for me !!! You are so kind...So if I am talking to my English buddies I am supposed to say *maïs soufflé* ?? Also when I order my sub at your working station I have to say laitue and not Lettuce ??? I am confused... by the way *anglicisme* is a French word you should not be using it in your perfect paragraph. Thanks Buddy !!

Marguerite Deschamps

@Marc Martin, he thinks he knows what an "anglicisme" is. But he doesn't. And "laitue" is the correct translation for "lettuce" and the translation for "salad" is "salade". And the words hail from the Fench as a lot of other English words.

David Amos

@Marc Martin "Sussex elected PANB...Is this so hard to understand Davis."

NOPE

Methinks the PANB, the Irving Clan, Corridor Resources, Mr Higgs and definitely Bruce Northrup know why you have teased me several times about this story which appeared in the Kings County Record on June 22, 2004. Even you cannot deny that I definitely mentioned natural gas back then N'esy Pas?

Let's leave the law the way it is , and next election put a Question on the Ballot about Fracking.

David Amos

@Aaron Allison Why bother? Methnks its only the Irving Clan and their buddies in Corridor that want to frack and they have no where to put the waste water anyway N'esy Pas?

Bob Smith

All the fury and hot air coming out, it still comes down to one basic fact: if the price on natural gas doesn't make it profitable for a company to come, it stays where it is. Until that point is reached, I don't want to hear "economic benefits", "destruction of wells in the entire province", "our land" and so on...

Evan Day

@Bob Smith Corridor was already here working - including fracking. They've already said they'll resume work if the moratorium is lifted.

Bob Smith

@Evan Day I'm not talking past work. Right now, price on natural gas is near an all time low. To say they're coming back when the moratorium lifts regardless of price is incorrect. It still has to make sense, money wise..

David Amos

@Evan Day True

 

Craig O'Donnell

@Bob Smith No reason that exploration can't resume.

David Amos

@Craig O'Donnell Exploration or is exploitation?

 

pete prosser

If the resource was used to power an electricity power plant and thus reduced rates because the free resource belongs to the residents , then it would be much more palatable.

Norman Albert Snr

@pete prosser Not even close to being a likelihood. This is all for personal and corporate profits. What is left in it's wake would be our problem!!

David Amos

@pete prosser Methinks everybody knows that common sense doesn't work with politicians and greedy corporations N'esy Pas? I have been saying such things for years How about using it to heat all the homes and supplying the other businesses in the area? Instead Potash Corp got a lot of it for free and gave us hardly anything for the royalty on the potash either.

daryl doucette

Peter Prosser has hit the nail on the head. Think about it....the government ( ahhh....eerrr that would be US NEW BRUNSWICKERS/CANADIANS... could build a HUGE natural gas fired power plant, sell us New Brunswickers electricity at at least half of what we pay now, and export the remaining ( 99.999%) for a huge profit into government coffers! We could get rid of our provincial debt, hire more doctors, nurses, teachers, police, fire, paramedics, etc. And live happily ever after...like Norway, ....or, we could allow BIG OIL, foreign or domestic, to come here, drill for the gas, take it all away south via pipeline ( as in Sable Island Gas) and just hope this years royalty check of a few hundred thousand will be bigger next year. ...and I don't want to hear replies that " they create employement here" as an excuse for giving away our wealth. Those same folks will be " employed" anyway ....if WE choose to keep our natural gas revenue here in our government bank accounts.

David Amos

@daryl doucette We can buy all the natural gas we want cheap anyway. There is no need to frack for it. Why did Irving and Repsol build the LNG operation in Saint John and Emera a pipeline and then nothing happened?

PANB leader calls for House vote if Tories want to frack outside Sussex

The PCs hope to lift moratorium in Sussex area before the end of the year

Jacques Poitras · CBC News · Posted: Nov 14, 2018 5:00 AM AT 

People's Alliance of New Brunswick Leader Kris Austin said it would the 'wrong move' if the PCs were to lift the moratorium on areas outside Sussex without bringing the matter to the House for a vote. (James West/Canadian Press)

People's Alliance Leader Kris Austin says the new Higgs government will be making "a wrong move" if it allows shale gas development outside the Sussex area without a vote in the legislature.

Austin said he and his two fellow Alliance MLAs will want a say on any lifting of a province-wide moratorium in areas they represent.

• Community of Penobsquis divided over MLA's push to revive fracking

• Shale gas exploration could get green light by Christmas, says MLA

While the party has promised to support the new Progressive Conservative minority government in confidence votes for 18 months, Austin said he'd allow his members a free vote on fracking in their ridings.

"If it affects our riding, and where we are elected, we certainly want a say in that. I'll just leave it at that," Austin said. "Our caucus wants a say in what happens in our ridings."

The PCs hope to lift the moratorium in the Sussex area before the end of the year and, eventually, in other areas where there is support.

PC MLA Bruce Northrup said the Tories hope to allow fracking in areas that support it by Christmas. (CBC)

"We're looking at different areas and municipalities that want it," Sussex-Fundy-St. Martins PC MLA Bruce Northrup said last week.

Corridor Resources started extracting gas in the Sussex area since 1999.

"They could proceed certainly in Sussex," Austin said Tuesday. "If they start going outside of that, I think they're going to have some problems on their hands if they don't bring it to the legislature for a vote. I think that would be a wrong move."

Liberal moratorium

The Liberal government imposed a moratorium on shale gas development in 2015.

The Liberals first amended the Oil and Natural Gas Act to give the cabinet the power to impose the moratorium through regulations. The cabinet then issued the order.

It's not clear whether the new PC government will introduce legislation to end the moratorium.

The Liberal-imposed moratorium was at a cabinet order, meaning it could be repealed by cabinet, according to a Tory spokesperson. 

"Technically speaking, the 2015 moratorium was imposed through a regulation of cabinet which could be repealed by cabinet," spokesperson Jean Bertin said in a written statement.

"However, government staff are investigating whether implementing regional resource development and outlining a mechanism for determining support would require amendments to legislation."

Austin said whether legislation is required or not, the issue should still come to a vote.

"Absolutely," he said. "With such a contentious issue like that, I think that all members should have a right to vote."

• PODCAST
  Fracking poised to be key issue in new legislature

• People's Alliance leader defends party's notion of language rights

And he said he is not sure how he'd vote, given the chance.

"I don't know. I would have to go back to my constituents, talk to my people, try to get a feel for where my riding's at on it, then vote according to them.

'A line in the sand'

Fracking was a key issue in the 2014 election, in which the PCs campaigned on the need to "Say Yes" to resource development. The Liberals promised a moratorium and won a narrow majority.

In this year's campaign, PC Leader Blaine Higgs promised to lift the moratorium in areas of the province "where communities are interested in pursuing" development. He cited the Sussex area and Albert County as two possible examples.

Premier Blaine Higgs identified Sussex and Albert County as communities interested in shale gas development. (James West/Canadian Press)

He didn't say how a PC government would define the boundaries of those local areas.

Higgs said in August that he'd measure support for development by listening to municipal councils, then letting the consultations "spread out" to surrounding local service districts through open meetings.

Austin said the three Alliance MLAs will support the upcoming PC throne speech if it mentions lifting the moratorium.

"We're not going to collapse a government on a general statement in a throne speech on shale gas," Austin said.

Green Party Leader David Coon has already called fracking "a line in the sand" for him and all three of the party's MLAs said they would not support any change to the moratorium.

A Liberal spokesperson said Tuesday the party won't have any comment until its MLAs have been assigned their critic roles in the legislature.

The Liberals said they'd lift the moratorium if five conditions were met: a "social licence," or community approval, to extract shale gas; reliable data on health, environmental and water impacts; a plan to dispose of wastewater; proper Indigenous consultations; and a proper structure for the province to collect royalty payments.
