Higgs the first provincial Premier in Canadian history
to return grants to the federal government!
Next he wants to return our equalization payments if we don't accept fracking.
Proof that Higgs didn't quit his daytime job with the Irvings.
He even visited Washington DC on our dime to discuss items related to the Irvings.

"Hope" is a dangerous thing. Putting a blind trust on somebody with no knowledge of what their true intentions are can be devastating. We've seen this with previous governments. Hope is not what we should be using to base our decisions upon. We have to rely on past actions these candidates have done in the past on a political standpoint if we want to make a smart decision.

DeRoche: Winston Churchill was often frustrated at what he perceived as
de Gaulle's patriotic arrogance. Churchill tried to explain:
"He felt it was essential to his position before the French people that he should maintain a proud and haughty demeanour towards "perfidious Albion", although in exile, dependent upon our protection and dwelling in our midst. He had to be rude to the British to prove to French eyes that he was not a British puppet. He certainly carried out this policy with perseverance."

find it interesting how he referred to his "acadien friends", yet he
wants to bring all New Brunsiwckers together. New Brunswickers don't
stand a chance. You have the liberals and their loyalty to sanb and the
irvings and the pc party and their loyalty to the irvings. the real New
Brunswickers don't have a chance with these and what have the panb done.
They have toed the line as the pc party expected them to do. their
leader sold himself out. when all parties agreed to the new raise and
expense increase they showed they were in it for themselves and nobdoy

But by attacking each other and not sharing positive progressive ideas
about how to make things better, we ensure that all suffer. No one party
has any more chance of observing its "promises" if the main goal and
focus are to set re-election as a priority and if the powers that be
refuse to stand up for what is they say they'd do.

you think about the necessity of being qualified for a job. Do you think
that qualifications are necessary ?

Reply to @Josef Blow: You need to be qualified for a lot of jobs but SANB are taking it to far,

Reply to @Cleve
Gallant: How far is too far and how far is not far enough ? This is
always open to debate, Cleve, but the SANB is not the government and it
does not make the rules.
To the best of my knowledge, and I'm sure you'll agree, EVERY job has requirements and if one does not meet those requirements, then one doesn't qualify for the job.

Just a different head on the bobble head doll. Nothing will change. Party principles and agenda remain the same. If elected, we will have another 4 years of dictatorship like we had with the Gallant Liberals where we went from one crisis to another. We have just come out of a government that has costs NBers millions more for Extramural by signing off with Medavie, a government that saw nothing wrong with Medavie allowing ambulances to sit unmanned while people drove their sick family member to the hospital ER. We can not afford another irresponsible and wreckless Liberal government again in this province, one that signs contracts that enslave taxpayers for decades to come.

Sounds like our last liberal leader in NB!!!! Promise the world... do nothing!!!
The last this NB needs is another liberal government who is looking to look after the Acadians, and only the acadians, the heck with the MAJORITY of the population!!!!!!

The last thing that NB needed, or needs, is what they got in the fall, a government that is only looking after those who voted for their party rather than looking after the majority of citizens of New Brunswick.

Ahhh another true Liberal, scaring the day lights out of folks with the greatest scam ever, climate change.
Robert Brannen
Reply to @daryl doucette: The colder temperatures lately are part of climate variability which is not climate change, climate change is overlaid on climate variability resulting in a trend toward warming within the climate variability. Deniers misperceived the variability to be an hiatus in warming rather recently.

Next he wants to return our equalization payments if we don't accept fracking.

Did not we hear similar "great ideals" just about 4 years ago from the federal Liberals? And that is not going to end well, and, trust me, neither will this.
The rot is too deep, the smell too rotten, time for us to do better than either red, or blue.

But to put forth a new shining face on the old party back room does not mean change, never did, never will.

Kevin Vickers announces vision for Liberals at Miramichi rally
Former ambassador says he wants to bring people together and promises to 'work tirelessly'
Kevin Vickers announced his vision for
the province Saturday, which includes growing the economy, fiscal
responsibility, revamping education, improving health care and
protecting the environment.
The leader of the provincial Liberals led a party rally on Saturday afternoon in Miramichi.
At the rally, Vickers recognized that climate change is one of the greatest dangers and threats, but he said there's no need for New Brunswick to be paying more carbon tax than Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
Still, he said the province must find a way to reduce carbon emissions.
"We need to think, act and live green."

He also said it's time to "put the care back in health care."
"The sad situation with our nursing home workers could have been avoided if their concerns had been taken seriously much earlier in a spirit of collaboration and goodwill," said Vickers, regarding the ongoing tension between nursing home workers and the province.
Vickers said he's ready for the responsibilities that come with being party leader and promised to "work tirelessly" for the people in the province.
When Vickers said he would lead the Liberal Party to victory in the next election, he was met with applause and supporters chanted his first name.
Vickers said many people have asked him why he wanted to become leader of the Liberal Party.
"My Acadian friends were worried as to what's happening in New Brunswick and ... they wanted me to run for the Liberal Party," he said.
"I thought how great this party can be French, English, promoting the co-operative movement, working co-operatively, valuing one another, respecting one another.... There was no question in my mind that I was leaving Ireland and coming home."
Vickers, 62, is a former sergeant-at-arms in the House of Commons and Canada's former ambassador to Ireland.
He became the Liberal Party leader on April 24, replacing former leader Brian Gallant, who resigned when his government lost its majority in the legislature in the the provincial election.
Vickers became the only candidate for leadership after Moncton's René Ephestion dropped out of the race.

Ephestion, the executive director of Moncton's Nazareth House, attended the rally because he wanted to learn about Vicker's vision.
"For me it's really important to have a leader who understands that New Brunswickers, the population, is more important than their seats, than their money and their political career," Ephestion said.
Ephestion said he hopes Vickers meets his high expectations.
