N.B. rotational workers disheartened after sudden change to isolation rules

Vaccinated workers must now self-isolate for 14 days

When Adrian Cornect managed to schedule a COVID-19 vaccine appointment, he turned down shifts at his work site in northern Ontario and scrambled to book a last-minute flight to New Brunswick.

The $1,800 ticket and lost work hours meant he would soon be able to easily see his family after months of restrictions keeping them apart.

But, two days after getting the shot, the rules changed again.

"People are frustrated," Cornect said. "We're being pointed out as rotational workers."

New Brunswick had announced loosened restrictions for rotational workers and prioritized them for the vaccine, allowing them to avoid self-isolation 14 days after receiving a first dose.

Public Health reversed that decision on Friday. Now, all rotational workers, including those who are vaccinated, must self-isolate for a full two weeks, away from others.

Many rotational workers have been calling for testing to reduce self-isolation over the past few months. Truck drivers and regular cross-border commuters are under less-restrictive rules, which allow for modified isolation with their household.

Cornect goes back and forth between his home in Rothesay and work at Abitibi Canyon in northern Ontario.

Under self-isolation rules, his wife has to leave the house and move in with her parents during visits home.

"There is a breaking point and the breaking point is very near," he said.

"The government has to realize people have families. It's not everybody that has a job in New Brunswick they can go home every night to."

'We've all done our part'

Sean Hudson lives in Hampton and works as the flight operations co-ordinator at Baffin Iron Mines in Nunavut. He works three weeks on and three weeks off and called the change "disheartening."

"I thought life could go back to somewhat normal where I could see the family and now even with my vaccine, I'll have to go two weeks without seeing them," he said.

The mine site frequently tests employees and has stringent COVID-19 protocols in place.

Hudson said the vaccine was a "glimmer of hope" for being able to spend time with his three young children. He's holding off to tell them about the rule change and hoping things will change before his rotation ends.

"We've all done our part to stay safe and keep people and safe and I have no issue doing that — but I'd just like it to be fair," he said. "For some reason the rotational workers have been demonized."

People moving to N.B. seek answers as hotel quarantine rule approaches

Red Cross says it still hasn't picked designated hotels

People moving to New Brunswick are searching for answers on how to properly self-isolate as a hotel quarantine requirement is set to take effect.

Ian Gordon and Gil Steeves had already made it from New York City to Maine when new travel rules put their plans in jeopardy.

They say they are discouraged and searching for answers on how to proceed.

"As frustrating as having new restrictions is, we're willing to follow them — we're completely compliant with everything that's been thrown our way," Steeves said. "And to have them say you have to do this, but not how you can do this, is wild."

All leisure travellers, business travellers and people moving to New Brunswick will have to self-isolate for at least seven days at a designated hotel. The change takes effect on Saturday at midnight.

Truck drivers, rotational workers and regular cross-border commuters are exempt.

The Canadian Red Cross will co-ordinate the hotels and food. It will cost travellers about $1,300 for the stay.

After negative tests on Day 5 and Day 10, they'll be able to complete isolation alone at home.

As the change approached, travellers scrambled to figure out how to book a hotel and follow the guidelines. 

'No guidance out there'

Gordon and Steeves had already submitted a quarantine plan to the Canada Border Services Agency, and registered their travel with the province. The couple was ready to self-isolate at Steeves's parents home while they were away and had co-ordinated grocery deliveries.

After hearing about the hotel requirement through social media, they've been calling the province's travel registration line but haven't been able to speak to anyone. So they tried the Red Cross, which is tasked with managing the designated isolation hotels.

"The Red Cross said, 'We have absolutely no idea what's going on, they dropped this on us as well, we don't know,' Steeves said. "They said to call back on Monday."

The couple has been living in New York for three years. They lost their jobs in the hotel industry due to the pandemic.

Steeves is a Canadian citizen originally from New Brunswick, while Gordon is going through the process of emigrating.

"It's really difficult to discern right now because there seems to be no guidance out there from at least New Brunswick, specifically," Gordon said.

No designated hotels yet

The Canadian Red Cross had not received any requests to stay in an isolation hotel as of Saturday afternoon.

Spokesperson Allie Murchison said there will be one designated hotel in each of the province's seven health zones. 

"There hasn't [been] anyone registered with the program as of yet, so we can't confirm what hotel and what area at this point in time," she said.

"We're having volunteers and security on site to make sure that those people are quarantining properly."

'You cannot get any information'

Shauna Jones was preparing to help her daughter, Sophie LeBlanc, move to Fredericton for her second year at the University of New Brunswick.

With the Atlantic bubble expected to open in late April, she expected the move from Halifax to a new apartment on May 1 wouldn't be challenging.

New Brunswick had recently eased restrictions for students and their family members at the end of the school year, allowing residents of Atlantic Canada to enter for less than 24 hours for moving.

 

Shauna Jones was planning to help her daughter, Sophie LeBlanc, move from Halifax to Fredericton, where she'll be studying at UNB. She is trying to get more information on new hotel isolation rules. (Submitted by Shauna Jones)

"My plan was to cross the border, go straight to her apartment, unload her belongings and then I would get back in my car and come straight home," Jones said.

But with the tightened rules, post-secondary students now need to stay at an isolation hotel. Public Health said the stay will be subsidized for returning students.

Jones is unsure if that will apply to her daughter and called the Red Cross to learn more.

"That person told me that she found out about it with the press release yesterday. She had no further information," she said.

"You cannot get any information on where you're supposed to go, where you're supposed to stay, how this is going to rollout."

Dalhousie Mayor Normand Pelletier says there is little regional co-operation in the Restigouche region, and believes amalgamation is the only solution. (Bridget Yard/CBC )

Normand Pelletier says he's willing to be the last mayor of the town of Dalhousie.

"If need be, yes," he says. "I have no problem with that." 

Pelletier is urging the Higgs government to fully amalgamate all municipalities and local service districts in the Restigouche area, whether everyone likes it or not.

He's been pushing for more regional co–operation for years but says he's been stymied time and again.

"No, we don't work well together," he says of the regional service commission in the Restigouche area. "I'm sorry, I'm going to be direct and straight. We have to be one municipality, one voice."

With the Progressive Conservative government committed to local government reform, he says this is the moment to create a single, large municipality.

"I'm not going to waste any more valuable oxygen trying to sell my case" for regional co–operation," he says. "It's amalgamation and that's it."


Daniel Allain, the Minister of Local Government and Local Governance Reform, says there must be change to the way local governance is done in the province. (Ed Hunter/CBC News)

Earlier this month Local Government Reform Minister Daniel Allain released a discussion paper laying out options for overhauling the province's patchwork of 340 municipal governments and unincorporated local service districts.

It's meant to address a number of issues, including the chronic lack of coordination of services between neighbouring municipalities and rural areas.

Campbellton Mayor Stephanie Anglehart-Paulin, who's not running for a new term, said she shares Pelletier's frustration with the lack of regional cooperation and supports a full merger, including her own city. "It's all or nothing," she said.

Pelletier, who has been acclaimed to another term as mayor in next month's election, is arguing that Premier Blaine Higgs can afford to go big in Restigouche County because there's no political downside for him there.

"He has nothing to lose. It's all Liberal ridings and he doesn't have any Conservatives up in this area, so go for it. Here's your opportunity." 

Allain did not rule out imposing amalgamations when the report was released, though he insisted he has no specific solution in mind yet.

"What the mayor's explaining, we're hearing that across New Brunswick, that there's different structures, different scenarios that could happen," Allain said Friday of Pelletier's proposal.

"The mayor enumerated one scenario. I have no preconceived notion of how the final report will look, but I'm glad the mayor has expressed himself." 

An organization representing local service districts says imposed amalgamations would not be acceptable.

"There's a debate to be had first," said Jules Bossé of the Union of Unincorporated Areas of New Brunswick, which is calling for elected LSD governments before there are any reforms.

 

Campbellton Mayor Stephanie Anglehart-Paulin is not re-offering for the position, but agrees amalgamation is worth considering. (CBC)

The association also disputes the idea that local service districts are holding up regionalization of services.

Pelletier first sat on Dalhousie's town council from 1995 to 1998, at the same time the McKenna government imposed mergers to create the city of Miramichi and the expanded city of Edmundston. 

"They've been flourishing," Pelletier says.

At the time, a merger of Dalhousie with three neighbouring villages was also discussed but never went ahead.

As mayor, he says he spent the last five years trying to get municipalities and local service districts to co–operate on issues ranging from the hiring of a development officer to cost-sharing for sports facilities used by everyone in the region. 

He says he was "shot down" at every turn and now sees amalgamation as the best option for a region with a declining population.

"It's time for us to come together as one voice," he says. "It's a no-brainer." 

Support for change?

The merger Pelletier envisions would include the city of Campbellton, the town of Dalhousie, the villages of Atholville, Balmoral, Eel River Crossing, Charlo and Tide Head, as well as local service districts in the area.

Support for bold change is growing, according to Frédérick Dion of the province's francophone municipalities association.

At a recent meeting of the association, 79 per cent of delegates voted to urge the province to revive the recommendations of the 2008 Finn report on local government reform.

"That means a lot of mayors and councillors voted for the disappearance of their municipalities," Dion says.

The Finn report, immediately shelved by the Liberal government of the day, urged the creation of 53 municipal entities that would take in all existing urban and rural areas in the province. Regional services would be coordinated by 12 commissioners.

The PC government of David Alward adopted the regional commissions in 2012, but their weighted voting system has created stalemates between municipalities and local service districts on many key issues. 

Dion said while many mayors and councillors were resistant to the Finn model in 2008, more and more of them see it as necessary.

"The thinking has changed," he says. "Our governance structure no longer responds to our needs."

Pelletier said while he's convinced full amalgamation is the best answer for Restigouche, he doesn't necessarily think it should be imposed province-wide.

"A single model would be nice, but some areas are different," he said. 

This week the francophone municipal association said it was concerned after Allain seemed to suggest in a newspaper interview that he was open to different local government reforms in different parts of the province, with as many as 10 to 12 kinds of municipal entities.

That would defeat the purpose of simplifying and streamlining the system, Dion says. "If we go there it won't work." 

But Allain says he was referring to his discussion paper laying out 10 or 12 different structures that could be looked at, "not necessarily" to the idea of all of them existing at the same time.

Health minister fires vocal chair of Horizon Health board

John McGarry first joined as CEO in 2013, then as board chair in 2019

 

Aidan Cox · CBC News · Posted: Apr 23, 2021 8:16 PM AT 

 


John McGarry has been removed from his role as chair of the board for Horizon Health Network. (CBC)

The chair of the board of Horizon Health Network has been fired.

Health Minister Dorothy Shephard made the decision to remove John McGarry from his position, Bruce Macfarlane, spokesperson for the Department of Health, said in an email Friday.

Shephard wasn't made available for an interview Friday afternoon, and Horizon deferred all comment to the provincial government.

CBC was unable to reach McGarry for comment Friday.

The move comes just a week after McGarry criticized the Department of Health when Shephard said it would take the lead on recruiting physicians to work in New Brunswick.

During a board of directors meeting last Friday, McGarry said he was "perturbed" by that plan, and he cast doubt on the Department of Health's ability to successfully recruit doctors.

"It all begins and ends with the hospital and the physicians groups, so I'm really perturbed with this statement of government saying we're taking over recruitment, and [I'm] thinking, 'Well, good luck'," McGarry said, at the time.

McGarry first joined Horizon as its CEO in February 2013, and in April 2016, he announced he would not be renewing his four-year contract.

In January 2019, McGarry was brought in again under former health minister Ted Flemming, this time as Horizon's board chair.

Vocal about ideas on health-care reform

During his time as CEO, McGarry was outspoken about the need for major reforms to New Brunswick's health-care system to fix issues around wait times and hospital overcrowding.

In 2015, McGarry raised eyebrows when he tweeted about what he called a "crisis" of congestion in New Brunswick hospitals.

"Horizon Health network called for urgent action in January, Nurses Association of New Brunswick is now, all regional hospitals are facing intolerable congestion," he posted on Twitter.

"When will system sit down as one and fix the worsening situation of alternative levels of care and long term care for patients who need their hospital care? Please someone tell us what it will take?"

Then in a commentary piece he wrote in January 2016, McGarry said it was time to move away from the concept that all care must occur in hospitals, and embrace a model with fewer emergency rooms and improved care in communities.

By closing some hospitals and freeing up money, more could be invested in community health care, he said, at the time.

That same year, then-premier Brian Gallant declared there would be no major cuts to health care, which McGarry publicly disagreed with, saying smaller hospitals needed to close.

And last year, it was revealed that Horizon's board had approved a plan by Premier Blaine Higgs to close the nighttime operations of emergency departments at six small hospitals.

That plan was quickly scrapped following swift backlash from the public.

>
> This article traces the rise and fall of one of Canada's
> recently-formed populist, "New right" parties, the Confederation of

> destroyed the party's coherence.
>
> On September 11, 1995, the saga of the Confederation of Regions Party

> votes and no seats in the provincial election. This represented a
> major collapse of a party, which in the 1991 provincial election
> polled 87,256 votes (21% of the total), took 8 seats, and the position
> of Official Opposition in the Legislative Assembly. As it turned out,
> COR-NB's success in 1991 took place in a "populist moment" in New
> Brunswick politics, in which a number of factors came together to
> enable a new party, which rejected "Official Bilingualism" and many of
> the basic principles of the political system, to achieve significant
> success in a province with almost no tradition of third-party

> populist moment has passed, along with the other factors that made for
> COR-NB's success. For the forseeable future New Brunswick politics has
> returned to its historic pattern of two-party competition among
> small-c conservative elites.
>
> The COR Party of New Brunswick
>
> COR-NB was formed in 1989, less than two years after the "McKenna
> sweep" of 1987, in which the Liberal Party under Frank McKenna won
> every single seat in the legislature. In the 1991 election, COR-NB won
> its seats in the South and Central parts of the province, and its
> support was also disproportionately in rural, sparsely populated
> areas. COR took advantage of the voters' underlying concern about
> bilingualism. It did this chiefly in the former heartland of the
> Progressive Conservative (PC) Party.
>
> There are five central points that describe the party's platform and
> principles.
>
> The party was, first of all, a programmatic party, not a brokerage
> party. It had a fixed programme which its activists were unwilling to
> compromise.
>
> Second, it was a protest party with roots in a single issue, that of
> "Official Bilingualism." The party was essentially an "ethnic party"
> representing a segment of English New Brunswick which was extremely
> dissatisfied, to the point of anger, over the direction of public
> policy in the province and the country.1
>
> Third, like Social Credit in Alberta, COR-NB was a populist party and
> it placed high priority on changing the system in addition to changing
> specific public policies. This populism was represented most
> significantly in the inversion of the political hierarcy: For COR
> activists, elected members were responsible to the Electorate first,
> then the Party, and only finally the Leader.
>
> Fourth, ideologically the party is "classical liberal" in the
> nineteenth century sense, which today is best referred to as
> libertarian.
>
> Fifth and finally, like Social Credit in the past, in class terms the
> COR Party is petty bourgeois and lower-middle class in its
> orientation.
>
> This final point is important and too often neglected, and is also
> relevant to other Canadian political experiments, especially the
> Reform Party of Canada. In its heyday the COR Party was dominated by
> middle-income and small-business people, professionals, and the
> self-employed. The middle class is the backbone of advanced industrial
> societies and pays more than its share of taxes and is most likely to
> feel put upon and unable to "get ahead." The party went beyond
> appealing only to "middle-income groups." It was also a reflection of
> those individuals who have an intermediate amount of control over
> their work, including professionals, small business people, and
> independent commodity producers, like farmers, woodlot owners, fishers
> and the self-employed in general. These characteristics are important
> because this class sometimes allies with the working class, sometimes
> with the middle class, and sometimes is alienated from both.
>
> Political parties based purely on the middle class and petty
> bourgeoisie are notoriously hard to hold together. As C. B. MacPherson
> notes, "the petite-bourgeoisie cannot be cohesive" in politics because
> the individualism of members of this class divides it and splinters it
> apart.2
>
> In electoral terms the COR Party was not a party of big business or
> the affluent, even if its programme, especially the provisions that

> The COR Party in Decline
>
> By the fall of 1993, two years after the party's breakthrough in the

> party's slide in public opinion polls as well as internal bickering.
> By 1994 the party consistently polled between 3-7% of decided voters

> 2500 by the end of 1994. To some extent the conditions for the decline
> of the party mirror the conditions under which it arose.

> In this section some of the reasons for the party's decline will be

> populism; b) free market ideology, and; c) its role as a political
> party and Official Opposition in the existing system. In contrast to
> many members of the party, the argument presented here is that COR's
> problem was not just a matter of finding a new or better leader.
>
> The party ultimately collapsed because of the membership's approach to
> politics and because a section of the party was unwilling to conform
> to the existing party system.
>
> There are straight-forward reasons for the party's decline that should
> be delineated briefly. First, the departure of Brian Mulroney from
> national politics, and the collapse of the federal PCs in the 1993
> federal election, made it possible for small-c conservatives to return
> to the provincial PC Party. Second, the COR Party suffered a double
> blow from the Charlottetown Constitutional Accord referendum in 1992.
> Since the accord was defeated nationally, constitutional and language
> issues disappeared for a time from the political agenda, which hurt
> the COR Party's ability to grab public attention. Even the province's
> constitutionalization of Bill 88, which declared the equality of the
> Francophone and Anglophone communities in the province, and the 1994
> Québec election, did not excite widespread public attention. The
> second blow was that COR-NB led the anti-accord side in New Brunswick
> in 1992 and yet the pro-accord side won convincingly in the province,
> all of which undermined COR-NB's claim that it represented some kind
> of "silent majority."
>
> Third, the provincial PC Party gained new credibility in the last two
> years because of the effectiveness of its leader, Dennis Cochrane, who
> was elected to that position and to the Legislative Assembly in 1991.
> Even the sudden resignation of Mr. Cochrane in the spring of 1995, and
> his replacement by former Mulroney cabinet minister Bernard Valcourt,
> did not revive COR's fortune's. Fourth, Frank McKenna's Liberal
> government was rightward leaning during its second mandate (1991-95),
> given its attitudes toward individual and provincial self-reliance,
> cuts to social and health services, and its emphasis on job creation
> in the private sector. This also hurt the COR Party because like a
> competent brokerage politician, McKenna's rightward move undercut
> COR-NB support, and this left most opponents of the government in the
> centre (supporting the PCs) or to the left (supporting the NDP, led by
> Elizabeth Weir).
>

N.B. COVID-19 roundup: Mandatory hotel isolation for leisure travellers, new rules for truckers, commuters

People who travel for non-essential reasons will have to spend 7 days in hotel at own expense on return

Latest

  • 16 new cases, 150 active cases
  • Just don't travel, premier says
  • Commuters, truck drivers must self-isolate
  • No full-time in-person high school for rest of year
  • Possible exposures
  • What to do if you have a symptom

The New Brunswick government is bringing in additional travel restrictions for leisure travellers and people who travel for work such as truckers and commuters.

Premier Blaine Higgs announced Friday that starting Saturday at 11:59 p.m., people travelling for non-essential reasons will have to self-isolate at an isolation hotel at their own expense for at least seven days when they return to New Brunswick.

They will be required to take a COVID-19 test on day five, and if they test negative they can continue the last half of their isolation at a home where no one else lives. 

Higgs said the hotels will be in designated areas around the province, and the cost to stay in them would be around $200 a night. 

The best approach would be to avoid travelling altogether if there's no need.

"If you don't need to come to New Brunswick, don't come here," he said. "We want you, just not right now."


Dr. Jennifer Russell, chief medical officer of health, says non-essential travel is causing much of the province's travel-related COVID-19 infections. (Government of New Brunswick )

When they arrive in New Brunswick, leisure travellers will have to drive themselves or use a taxi. Higgs said no family pickups or carpools are allowed.

Russell did not say how many of the 16 new cases announce Friday are related to leisure travel, but according to figures shared by the Department of Heath, 75 of the 175 recent travel-related cases are connected to non-essential travel.

Higgs asked people who are moving to New Brunswick to delay their move by a few months. He also asked leisure travellers wanting to return home to stay away for longer.

"If you are, for example, currently at a resort in Florida and are able to stay there for another month, please do so," he said. "The risk to you and to everyone you come into contact with is simply too high."

Higgs said the new rules will be mandatory until at least the end of May.

Premier Blaine Higgs says stays in isolation hotels are among the new requirements for some travellers. 3:47

Chief medical officer of health Dr. Jennifer Russell said many of the of travel-related cases in New Brunswick have been caused by non-essential travel. She said people who leave province to visit family and friends and come back, have had to self-isolate away from others on their return.

"Judging by the new cases. … This is not happening as consistently as it should," she said.

Higgs said he's been saying for over year that people should avoid unnecessary travel.

"I know there's an imposition with individuals coming home," he said. "They can change their schedule, and if they can't, we have to be sure that we protect the rest of the population and they don't bring something more home than their suitcase."

This applies whether even if the traveller is vaccinated, Higgs said.

Commuters, truck drivers must self-isolate

Higgs also announced new travel restrictions for commuters and truck drivers, but not including rotational workers.

Starting Saturday at 11:59 p.m., once the workers return to New Brunswick, they will need to stay at home for 14 days except to meet medical needs and necessities of life, and as long as they use curbside pick up and delivery.

This applies whether or not they've been vaccinated. He said this will be re-evaluated weekly, but this new measure is also expected to remain in place until late May.

Truck drivers and all other travellers into New Brunswick must register before they're allowed to enter.

Also as of Saturday at 11:59 p.m., rotational workers will be required to self-isolate for 14 days, separate from others. If they must self-isolate with other people, those people will also have to self-isolate.

This also applies regardless of their vaccination status.

People who share a home with truck drivers or regular cross-border commuters don't have to self-isolate but are asked to minimize their contact with the workers.

Higgs also thanked truck drivers for making vaccination appointments.

He said fines issued to people who break these rules and others mandated by the emergency order will be increased from $292 to $580.

WATCH | Higgs on why N.B. won't offer leeway to leisure travellers who can't change plans right away

 

Premier Blaine Higgs says there will be no leeway for New Brunswick-bound travellers who cannot change their plans before new regulations start at midnight Saturday. 1:54

He said students coming into New Brunswick from anywhere in Atlantic Canada that's considered a "hot zone" such as Halifax, will also have to self isolate at hotels, but the province will cover that expense. People helping them move will also have to self isolate with them.

"This program will be overseen by the Canadian Red Cross," Higgs said.

Higgs also said high school would not be returning to full-time in person school for the rest of the school year.

Astra-Zeneca change makes little difference to N.B.

Shortly before the New Brunswick briefing, another briefing was being held by Canada's National Advisory Committee on Immunization, also known as NACI. The organization recommended expanding the use of the AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID-19 vaccine to all Canadians over the age of 30. 

New Brunswick currently only uses Astra-Zeneca when vaccinating people 55 and older because there's a risk of it causing rare blood clots in younger people.

Russell said this new recommendation wouldn't have a big impact on the province's immunization efforts because it's almost out of Astra-Zeneca.

"New Brunswick is going to stay the course," she said. "We won't be getting any more Astra-Zenneca until probably the end of May."

16 new cases

Public health reported 16 new COVID-19 cases Friday, and there are now 150 active cases in the province.

Most of these cases are travel-related, and 11 of the travel-related cases are New Brunswick workers currently isolating outside the province, Russell said Friday.

Moncton region, Zone 1, four cases:

  • an individual 20 to 29
  • an individual 30 to 39
  • an individual 40 to 49
  • an individual 50 to 59

Three of these cases are travel related and one is under investigation.

Saint John region, Zone 2, two cases:

  • Both people 50 to 59.

Both cases are travel-related.

Edmundston region, Zone 4, two cases:

  • an individual 19 or under
  • an individual 40 to 49

Both cases are contacts of previously confirmed cases.

Bathurst region, Zone 6, eight cases:

  • four people 40 to 49
  • two people 50 to 59
  • two people 60 to 69

All eight cases are travel related.

Elsewhere in Atlantic Canada:

  • Nova Scotia reported 44 new cases on Friday, with the central Halifax region entering a four-week lockdown. Some cases were detected in a school and a long-term care home. There are now 150 active cases of COVID-19 in that province.  
  • Newfoundland and Labrador had 1 new case Friday,  with 23 active cases in total. 
  • Prince Edward Island reported one new case of COVID-19 Thursday, connected to travel. There are 12 active cases in that province.
 

Twenty two truckers tested positive for COVID-19 between early December and April 12, and in turn directly infected 30 people. Eighteen rotational workers tested positive for COVID-19 in the same period and directly infected four people. (David Donnelly/CBC)

So far this week, New Brunswick has recorded 51 new cases of the respiratory illness, one death, the first detected case of blood clot caused by the AstraZeneca vaccine, and outbreaks at two special care homes, Pavillon Beau-Lieu in Grand Falls and Murray Street Lodge in Grand Bay-Westfield.

On Thursday, Higgs reminded people of the importance of self-isolating when entering the province. He also pointed out that there is a lower percentage of vaccinated long-term care home employees compared to other healthcare sectors. 

Russell said the new variants detected in the province are spreading faster and they're more contagious.

As of Thursday, there have been 34 deaths.

148. Thirteen patients are hospitalized, including five in an intensive care unit. Yesterday, 1,333 tests were conducted for a total of 281,343. About 228,000 doses of the vaccine have been administered provincewide.

Tighter travel restrictions

New Brunswick rolled out new self-isolation rules for leisure travellers, rotational workers and truckers.

The changes took effect Saturday night.

Rotational workers are now required to self-isolate for 14 days, away from others, regardless of vaccination status.

Daily cross-border commuters and truck drivers must now follow a modified self-isolation, staying at home for 14 days. They are allowed to isolate with members of their household present.

A group of truckers gathered at the border between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick to protest the changes on Sunday. They waved signs and briefly gathered in the middle of the road.

All non-essential travellers, including business travellers and people moving to the province, will have to self-isolate for at least seven days at a designated hotel. 

The Canadian Red Cross is managing the quarantine hotels and travellers will have to pay about $200 per day for a stay of at least seven days. They will be able to finish isolating at home with negative test results.

The province said travellers should call the Red Cross directly, not hotels, to make a reservation at 1-800-863-6582.

Public Health released a list of designated isolation hotels on Sunday. They include The Hilton in Saint John; Hyatt Place in Moncton; the Delta in Fredericton; Canada's Best Value Inn in Woodstock; The Rodd in Miramichi; The Best Western in Bathurst; and the Quality Inn in Campbellton.

Red Cross spokesperson Allie Murchison said people have started to register, but couldn't say how many people have booked.

She said no travellers were staying in an isolation hotel as of Sunday afternoon.
