New boards for Horizon Health Network, Vitalité Health Network begin term
Tom Soucy named chair of Vitalité; Carol Reimer named chair of Horizon
Carol Reimer, a registered nurse and health-care consultant, was named chair of Horizon's board while Tom Soucy, president and CEO of Groupe Westco, was named Vitalité's board chair.
Soucy told Radio-Canada that his role will be "to see what my experience in terms of business management can bring to the organization."
This announcement comes after Health Minister Bruce Fitch introduced legislation in May to change the boards from a mix of appointed and elected members, to entirely appointed boards. It was criticized by the opposition, but received royal assent last month.
Reimer and Soucy will replace Suzanne Johnston and Gérald Richard, who have concluded their terms as trustees of the Horizon and Vitalité health authorities, respectively.
Johnston and Richard were appointed last July in a shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership, following the death of a patient in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's emergency department in Fredericton.
They have also completed their term as co-chairs of the provincial health plan implementation committee. They started in those positions in November 2021.
Each board of the health authorities will have seven voting members, and the new board members are:
Horizon Health Network
- Carol Reimer, chair, Zone 3.
- Dr. Stephen Bolton, Zone 3.
- Denis Goguen, Zone 1.
- Donna Redmond Gates, Zone 2.
- Susan Harley, Zone 2.
- Jane Nastasiuk, Zone 7.
- Mike Walton, Zone 2.
Vitalité Health Network
- Tom Soucy, chair, Zone 4.
- Julie Cyr, Zone 5.
- Réjean Desprès, Zone 1.
- Yves Francoeur, Zone 6.
- Jean-Claude Pelletier, Zone 4.
- Claire Savoie, Zone 6.
- Johanne Thériault Paulin, Zone 6.
In addition to the new board appointments, the province also announced the establishment of a health system collaboration council.
The council will be chaired by the health minister and include two representatives from each of the two health authorities.
Fitch made the announcement through a statement issued Friday.

New Vitalité board chair looking for ways to share services with Horizon
Tom Soucy expects it will be easier for smaller, seven-member boards to make decisions
Tom Soucy says his comments are not based on anything personal about former or new members of Vitalité or Horizon, but rather from his experience with several private and public boards of directors.
Soucy, president and CEO of the large chicken-farming company Groupe Westco, based in Madawaska County in northwestern New Brunswick, has previously served on several other boards, including for N.B. Power.
"Large boards are usually non-efficient," he said. "The more people there is, the harder it is to take decisions."
Soucy was one of 14 new health-board appointments announced by the provincial government last Friday, following legislation introduced by Health Minister Bruce Fitch in May to change the composition of the boards from a mix of seven appointed and eight elected members, to entirely appointed. The change was criticized by the opposition, but the legislation received royal assent last month.
[SIMILAR}
Carol Reimer, a registered nurse and health-care consultant, was named chair of Horizon's board.
Reimer and Soucy replace Suzanne Johnston and Gérald Richard, who had been appointed trustees of Horizon and Vitalité, respectively, nearly a year ago when the previous boards were abolished in a shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership. The decision followed the death of a patient in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's emergency department in Fredericton.
Government may be 'grasping at straws'
A health management expert from University of Moncton agrees the new, smaller boards may be able to move quicker to reform the system.
But Claire Johnson says they face many challenges, such as improving collaboration between authorities, and improving wait times and access to care.
The board changes show the government is trying to do something, according to Johnson, but she thinks it may be "grasping at straws."
Claire Johnson, a professor of health-care management at the University of Moncton, said an early measure of success she'll be watching for with the new boards is more timely access to primary care. (Submitted by Claire Johnson)
"I'm not convinced that these changes are going to make a big difference," she said.
"Health care is complex. It's like a giant beast that takes a lot of resources and it moves really, really slowly. So regardless of the model of the board or a trustee, that kind of remains, and it's slow and it's hard to make changes."
Community voices missing
One problem with the new boards, said Johnson, is now that elected members are gone, community voices are missing from health-care management.
"You've got a lot of experts around the table, which is great, but it's kind of neglecting the community aspect."
She said that's a particular concern for minorities, such as francophones and Indigenous people.
And while appointed boards are common across Canada, they sometimes draw criticism for being too political, Johnson noted.
Better collaboration needed
She agrees with the government that the province's two health authorities need to work together better. For example, she contends information systems should be integrated so if a person gets care in one hospital, those details are shared throughout the province.
A big challenge for newly appointed health boards, she said, will be to figure out how to do that while respecting various interests.
We need to work together to make sure that we're efficient and that there aren't too many of those duplications.
- Claire Johnson, health management expert
"We don't have the population to sustain two completely independent regional health authorities. So we need to work together to make sure that we're efficient and that there aren't too many of those duplications.
"But at the same time to be able to answer and to deliver health care to these two different populations that do have huge differences and that they have rights to health care in their own language," said Johnson.
"It's a fine balance between answering everybody's needs without anybody feeling like the other person has more than they do, and delivering care in an efficient and timely manner."
Mandate to 'create synergies'
Soucy said he'll be looking for ways to share Vitalité services with Horizon.
He's still awaiting a meeting and more instruction from the Department of Health, but his understanding of the board's mandate is to "try to create synergies" across the system to provide better care "without costing more to the government."
Asked to elaborate on creating synergies, Soucy cited this example: "So like let's say there ... would be 10 labs in New Brunswick, maybe we only need nine."
With the province's aging population, he anticipates there will be increased strain on the system and more funding required.
"The more demand for the budget, there's going to be more and more challenges coming ahead."
Only 3 returning members
According to a member of the Vitalité board that was disbanded last summer, two of its new appointments are returning members — Julie Cyr, who is based in Campbellton and has a background in community college health-care training programs, and Clair Savoie of health Zone 6 in the Bathurst area, whose background is in primary health care.
A former Horizon board member says its board has only one returning member — the chair, Carol Reimer.
The former members say they know of at least a few of their colleagues who applied for positions on the new boards and were not chosen.

"Large boards are usually non-efficient," he said. "The more people there is, the harder it is to take decisions."
Yea Right I can't help but wonder if Soucy remembers me an what he thinks about NB Power filing a lawsuit against the EUB this week
A big challenge for newly appointed health boards, she said, will be to figure out how to do that while respecting various interests.
The Feds are the ones to consult. Well that is if if a snail pace is what is needed.
https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/health-care-system/ehealth/canada-health-infostructure/history.htmlFold the two health networks into 1. Eliminate one set of non essential overhead, synergies start from there.
One entity, one resource pool to share from. Assuming competent management synergies happen.
Duality is the problem in our system, not bilingualism.
Yeah, that won't seem like an insult to the francophone population.
New Brunswick Critical Worker Pilot Project (NBCWP)
The
New Brunswick Critical Worker Pilot Project (NBCWP) is a
first-of-its-kind immigration project between the New
Brunswick provincial government, and the federal government.
In an attempt to address key labour shortages in New Brunswick,
the Canadian federal government will work with Immigration and
Opportunities NB, and six selected employers in New Brunswick on a new
immigration pilot project; to bring and settle skilled foreign workers
to the province.
Overview
On the 7th of November 2022, the provincial government of New Brunswick and the federal government introduced the New Brunswick Critical Worker Pilot Project (NBCWP). The program is unique in the fact that it seeks to not just provide economic immigration to New Brunswick; but also to help newcomer retention to the area by providing settlement services for immigrants.
The pilot will work with six selected employers to help fill labour gaps in several industries, including manufacturing, fisheries, food production, forestry, farming and more.
This five-year pilot will be regularly monitored and reviewed to ensure that it yields the necessary results. Newcomer attraction, economic contribution, and retention are high on the provincial government's list of priorities; with New Brunswick ranking 8th overall in population among Canada's provinces, and 11th in terms of GDP per capita.
Partner Employers
The six employers who are selected to be a part of this program have been chosen due to their exemplary record under the New Brunswick Provincial Nominee Program (NBPNP), their history of good immigrant hiring practices, and because they have the requisite settlement services for new economic immigrants.
These six employers are:
Settlement Services
One of the most unique features of the NBCWP is the emphasis that the pilot puts, not just on bringing economic immigration to New Brunswick, but also on helping newcomers settle and establish lives in the province.
In line with this vision, the six businesses listed above must ensure that (in support of new immigrant settlement) they:
- Have robust settlement plans for housing, and transportation, to best support the successful establishment of candidates in their new jobs and communities, with a strong commitment to long-term retention;
- Have comprehensive human resources planning for recruiting and hiring skilled international talent, and for on-the-job skills enhancement;
- Provide up to 200 hours of language training, as required, to candidates; and
- Offer guidance and support to candidates who may wish to pursue their Canadian secondary education equivalency.

New Brunswick companies to seek trade opportunities in China
09 March 2011FREDERICTON
(CNB) – Eleven New Brunswick companies will join Economic Development
Minister Paul Robichaud on a trade mission to China from March 12 to 20.
The group will travel to Shanghai and Beijing.
"China offers unlimited export markets for many of our businesses,” said
Robichaud. “I am proud to accompany them as they explore new
opportunities to diversify their client base. "Our companies offer
world-class products and services, and the provincial government is
eager to support them as they seek to enter or strengthen their
relationships with China."
Business New Brunswick has hired the trade consultant company Atlantic
Canada Business Network Ltd. to develop business leads, provide
participants with in-depth market intelligence and match New Brunswick
companies with potential clients. The company, which has offices in
Saint John, Beijing, and Shenzhen, has led more than 40 trade missions
to China. It is also opening a new office in Shanghai next week.
The following companies are participating in the trade mission:
● Belledune Port Authority, Rayburn Doucett, president and chief executive officer (Belledune, 506-522-1200);
● C-Therm Technologies, Adam Harris, managing director, (Fredericton, 506-462-7203);

● Global MLX Inc., Mandy Aitken, president and chief executive officer, (Bathurst, 506-350-1188).
"The provincial government's partnership with the Atlantic Canada
Business Network underscores its commitment to helping New Brunswick
companies forge new partnerships with Chinese companies," said
Robichaud. "The business network's expertise and knowledge of the
Chinese market has helped several New Brunswick companies win contracts
in China."
In 2010, New Brunswick's major exports to China were approximately:
● wood pulp, 73 per cent of all exports to that country;
● zinc ores, 15 per cent;
● lead, six per cent; and
● seafood, five per cent.
"For some of the companies in the trade mission, this will be a first
time venture in the China market,” said Robichaud. “Others are coming
along to solidify relationships and business opportunities they have
forged on previous trade missions to China."

A perennial candidate is a political candidate who frequently runs for an elected office and rarely, if ever, wins. The term is the opposite of an incumbent politician who repeatedly defends their seats successfully. Perennial candidates can vary widely in nature. Some are independents who lack the support of the major political parties in an area or are members of alternative parties (such as third parties in the United States). Others may be mainstream candidates who can consistently win a party's nomination, but because their district is gerrymandered or a natural safe seat for another party, the candidate likewise never gets elected (thus these types are often paper candidates). Still others may typically run in primary elections for a party's nomination and lose repeatedly. Numerous perennial candidates, although not all, run with the full knowledge of their inability to win elections and instead use their candidacy for satire, to advance non-mainstream political platforms, or to take advantage of benefits afforded political candidates (such as campaign financing, name recognition, and television advertising benefits). ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Rédaction <nouvelle@acadienouvelle.com> Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2020 09:17:12 -0800 Subject: Re: Fwd: YO Mr Higgs Re My right to MEDICARE and NO MORE false imprisonment Just as I get another bill from Vitalité I hear Horizon want the RCMP to arrest me AGAIN TRUE or FALSE???

David Amos Content disabled Go Figure These are obviously not my Tweets but I did run against the lady Chisholm Pothier @chisholmp · Feb 10 The plan hasn’t even been announced yet and it’s already being condemned. We know one thing for sure - we cannot keep delivering Health the way we have. It isn’t sustainable with an aging population and needs have changed with demographic change anyway. #nbpoli /1 Quote Tweet Alaina Lockhart @AlainaLockhart · Feb 9 Premier @BlaineHiggs you can’t grow NB by reducing services in rural areas. NB needs strong rural comms to thrive. The @townofsussex is key to the region. You need to start thinking about the people impacted in your quest to improve the bottom line. https://twitter.com/ David Amos Content disabled Reply to @David Amos: Chisholm Pothier no longer speaks for the government Correct? David Amos Need I say I got a few calls after supper last night and the people who called could tell I was pretty cranky about something? Trust that what I heard on CBC this morning did not help my mood any.. David Amos Methinks the real problem is that Higgy and Flemming can't get enough bilingual folks who want to work within our Health Care System N'esy Pas? David Amos Reply to @David Amos: Methinks everybody knows since the time of Trudeau The Elder New Brunswick has been a great place to grow up and get an education but to find work most of our young ones must head west somewhere on the far side of Quebec. If the truth hurts so be it N'esy Pas? David Amos On CBC this morning I heard our mindless Health Minister direct folks to the emergency room in another province. Methinks we have not heard that last about that N'esy Pas?? Jim Cyr The people of New Brunswick are some of the silliest people in the world. It’s been hilarious to see almost all of them completely turn off their brains and freak out over Higgs’ emergency rooms plan. The people will now vote out the PCs, of course......just as their silly media masters tell them to do. And so the NB medical/fiscal/poverty situation will just get worse and worse and worse than it already is.. You can’t make this kind of stuff up, folks!! Amazing to see. Mind-numbingly predictable and monotonous. It’s like kubuki theater at this point.. BAD kubuki theater.....lol David Amos Reply to @Jim Cyr: Methinks you may be cluing in as to why I call this a circus If you can't find fun in the madness then you will go crazy like they claim I am. Yea I'm crazy alright. Some say I'm crazy like a fox others say I am just another narcissistic fool Hard telling not knowing for sure but one thing is for certain I am having fun laughing at all the people who laughed at me N'esy Pas? However I can be as crazy as i want to be Higgy should ask the shinks in the loonie bin of the DECH what they did with the wiretap tape of the mob that I gave them in 2008 that the RCMP refuse to investigate. Terry Tibbs Reply to @Jim Cyr: Silly? It's just plain "goofy". And once the CONServatives are gone, having been exchanged for the Liberals, the process will repeat itself, over and over. Not one among us able to figure out the only end result is our pocket remain empty. Michael Durant We need to begin serious talks with Doctors Without Boarders David Amos Reply to @Michael durant: Try again That one went over like a lead balloon Ben Haroldson Reply to @Michael durant: borders Yves Savoie Get your popcorn ready!!! The circus has begun.... David Amos Reply to @Yves Savoie: Wanna trade some of your popcorn for peanuts? Methinks Trump and everybody knows I have been enjoying the circuses on both sides of the 49th for many years from the peanut galley. Trump's minions know that just before July 4th, 2002 within a statement of Claim against an incredible number of Yankee lawyers I promised that I would run in the next Election in Canada. I have remained true to my word and have run 7 times thus far. I joined the clowns in the centre ring no only to to add my two bits worth and but to witness the high diving acts up close and personal. Trust that Harper and Higgy et al know that i dearly love the splash just my kids and I did at Sea World a long long time ago N'esy Pas? Ben Haroldson Reply to @David Amos: Kudos to that, and if you were in my riding you would get my vote, fed or prov. Lou Bell Reply to @Ben Haroldson: That would give him 14 votes Lou Bell Reply to @David Amos: " Methinks trumps and everybody knows I have been enjoy.. .... ...... " !!!

David Amos Reply to @Lou Bell: Better yet do you want me to give them yours so you can say hey to your Yankee heroes who locked me up in 2004? David Amos Reply to @Ben Haroldson: Thanks for the vote of confidence Ben Haroldson The Doctors are just helping to move things along. No sense waffling if things are that dire. David Amos Reply to @Ben Haroldson: So you say Terry Tibbs What do you *think*? Coincidence, or not? David Amos Reply to @Terry Tibbs: Methinks we all know the wicked game by now N'esy Pas? David Amos Reply to @David Amos: BTW I was born in the Sackville Hospital in 1952 and it saved my butt 3 years later when I went into a coma for a month. Methinks for that reason alone I should raise hell to defend it. Methinks it should be rather obvious that I quite simply don't care what my cousin Megan Mitton and all her Green Party pals say or do about it N'esy Pas? Holly Mossing Reply to @Terry Tibbs: Not coincidence: ERs and Labour and Delivery units have been randomly closing for years due to staffing issues. That’s part of the problem, and this move will be part of the solution. Government being responsible by listening to the health authorities. SarahRose Werner How is the pool of doctors who provide nighttime ER coverage supplied? Are these doctors who also work day jobs? Does staffing the ER overnight make doctors less accessible to patients who seek service during the day? Elaine MacDonald Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Overnight Doctors come from the family practice doctors; so while some work the ER during the day, those who work nights will also work office hours during the day before their night shift starts. After midnight, the ER is emergencies only, so you will be triaged by a nurse, then depending on the triage, you may or may not see a doctor. This Friday, from how it seems, there will be no doctor at all; I'm not sure if a tirage nurse will assess people however. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: Apparently not, because the ER will be closed entirely. Which makes sense because triage is a sorting procedure, not a treatment procedure. The word "triage" comes from the process of sorting battlefield patients into three levels: those will recover even without treatment, those who will even if treated and those for whom treatment will make a difference. If there's no one available to provide treatment, there's no point doing triage. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: "Overnight Doctors come from the family practice doctors; so while some work the ER during the day, those who work nights will also work office hours during the day before their night shift starts." - I'm not surprised that doctors who've already worked during the day are averse to taking overnight shifts as well. Terry Tibbs Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Why would they be "adverse"? If the "stories" told to us are true, after supper the family practice doctor heads out to the ER for 7pm, taking paperwork, or reading material, to catch up on. Right around maybe 10, or 11pm they pull up a bed and have a snooze, because there "might" be only 5 patients overnight, (this is "the claim") maybe only one needing his/her attention, so the nurse can wake him/her up as required. 7am the shift ends, doctor leaves fully rested,12 hours pay richer. In some cases, if the doctor lives real close, they go home, coming in only if needed. Holly Mossing Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Yes, it does, which is part of the problem. These are great shifts for doctors to pick up (quiet and pay very well), but don’t help the health of local people overall because the doc may see 5 urgent patients overnight but not be able to work at see *25* the next day. That’s a big capacity issue. David Amos Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: Its a pity that nobody in Sackville would listen to me this week David Amos Reply to @David Amos: However I will disclose that the Office of the CEO of one of our Health Care systems called me a few days before Flemming's big announcement in order to reach an understanding as to why I am going to file a lawsuitin order to get my Medicare Card and other things. I have heard nothing but crickets since. Methinks they think I am bluffing Others know I am not N'esy Pas? Ian Scott It would help if the management would outline what it takes to have an ER open 24/7. I do not think a lot of the public has a clue as to what it means to open an ER to all comers and the staff then needed to cover all reasonable issues. You cannot confuse the public and ambulances etc where to go each night if staffing gets short. It makes it worse. If you staff with general practice then they must have extended training in ER issues. Otherwise the next thing is the complaint that things were not done . Then comes the standard equipment needed for stroke trauma etc, like CT scanners etc. Even appendectomy becomes an issue without ultrasound or CT. Its really a standard of practice and it requires a service level that is very difficult to reach in small centers. Otherwise you just end up shipping people out again and delaying diagnostics and the right treatment, some of which are time related. Would you want surgery for something that is not needed? Or have blood thinners given when you actually have a brain bleed etc. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Ian Scott: One thing I've been reading in comments on stories on this issue is that people mention being "stabilized" in a smaller centre before being shipped out to a larger one. Not being a medical professional, I don't know what resources and skills are required to "stabilize" patients. Is this something that could be achieved in some other way, for example, by expanded and improved paramedic service? Ian Scott Reply to @SarahRose Werner: That is the care in bigger centers, well trained paramedics to stabilize at site and transport. Still most stroke issues need CT before treatment. Heart issues may be "stabilized" with drugs etc but transfer really is key for assessment . Trauma , (major) , needs a trauma center. I am not sure how many paramedics can intubate in the field at this point in NB but even an acute asthma or allergic issue might need it. Its what has been suggested. The numbers are small in many of these towns.Even having those staff may prove difficult down the road. Helicopter Air ambulance is another issue, complex and expensive but out there. Freddy is a trauma center for a certain level , but even it only has a snowfield for landing. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Ian Scott: Okay, so if someone has a heart attack, acute allergic attack, stroke, etc. in Sussex in the middle of the night and that person needs some sort of immediate treatment to tide them over until they get to the Saint John Regional, how is that provided? To me, that's the crux of the issue here. I agree that 24/7 ER service in all locations is not the answer. What are other possible answers? Elaine MacDonald Reply to @SarahRose Werner: In that situation, the patient will be sent on to Saint John/Moncton (not sure which hospital in regards to Sussex) regardless if they are stable or not. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: Are there increased to the patient if they're sent on without stabilization? What are those? What will be done to ameliorate those risks? Holly Mossing Reply to @SarahRose Werner: There is a great study on this that showed that cardiac patients who were “stabilized” at a small center then transferred had worse outcomes and a higher death rate than patients who bypassed their local ER and were brought directly to where they could receive specialized care, for example. ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ paramedics need to be normalized in New Brunswick and supported to make health care as safe as possible. I’ve never voted Conservative but in this case Higgs’ government is doing absolutely the responsible thing. We need to make sure they follow through with increased daytime services. David Amos Content disabled Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Methinks you must have read some of my comments N'esy Pas? David Amos Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Hmmmm Donald Smith There has to be a reason, or reasons why NB Cannot attract them ??????? Mack Leigh Reply to @Donald Smith: There definitely is however no one is allowed to talk about the " Elephant " in the room. Ian Scott Reply to @Mack Leigh: Major centers are not really having that issue except for OR constraints for time for some specialists and no beds because of acute care bed blockers. Bathurst has excellent docs as does Edmonston and they are better at language issues than the south. Freddy and SJ and the Moncton centers also attract excellent staff. Its in between that is the issue , and medicine has changed , as have expectations and the standard of care. An ER is just that , all comers, not a clinic. One has to meet rigid standards of care. And those are hard to meet in 4k population or less towns and villages. Aging issues are one of the biggest issues and its being met poorly. Billing numbers are a thing of the past so not in the question. There could certainly be some concern I suppose of young docs worried about potential language issues but low. Elaine MacDonald Reply to @Ian Scott: What people seem to forget is that Sackville, while a population of 5000 including Mt. Allison students, also services Dorchester, Memramcook, Port Elgin, Murry Corner as well as we get patients from the Cape like Cocagne, Cap Pele, Shediac. We've had people from Moncton and surrounding area come to our hospital in increasing numbers over the past two years, even as far as Anagance, AND we get people from NS as well like River Hebert and Amherst. It isn't just NB, but NS we serve too. So no, we don't have a 4K or less patient possibility, we have much more than that. SarahRose Werner Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: Then maybe NS would like to contribute some money to pay for overnight service at the ER. Terry Tibbs Reply to @SarahRose Werner: Don't you believe for a moment they don't. Show an out of province medicare card at a NB hospital and the eyes light up like a one armed bandit hitting a jackpot. David Amos Reply to @Donald Smith: Everybody knows the reasons David Amos Reply to @Mack Leigh: I do Brian Robertson This is just the logical next step in the deterioration of healthcare under the thumb of a government administered monopoly. When you have no money and no Doctors and costs are still increasing because all your workers are members of public service unions that can hold the public hostage; what else can happen? The viability of single payer healthcare is based on the metering of services in order to control costs. Public needs and individual abilities to pay simply do not factor into the equation. Terry Tibbs Reply to @Brian Robertson: Hold the phone, Just STOP, and *think* for a moment, you have been misdirected just like you are supposed to be. EVERY other province, or territory, has "evil" union belonging health professionals, this is not a NB only "thing". We are supposed to be short of 100, maybe 200, health professionals needed per capita (a different number pops out whenever those in charge are asked). We know the pay and benefits in NB are "short" hence the shortage of health professionals. Yet the cost of healthcare is higher (per capita) than every other province, or territory. So, either EVERYONE in NB is constantly sick, or the extra cost is somewhere else other than with the health professionals. I respectfully *think* you should be looking elsewhere. Brian Robertson Reply to @Terry Tibbs: All Provincial healthcare systems are following the same pattern decline; except possibly Quebec who enjoys a lucrative infusion of Federal transfer payments annually. New Brunswick just seems to be ahead of the curve in terms of declining services and wait times. There is more than enough blame to go around for this spiral trip around the drain. Yes, and that includes your healthcare professionals. David Amos Reply to @Terry Tibbs: Methinks he knows you are correct Quebec is a UNILINGUAL Province Hence its costs are less N'esy Pas? John Pokiok There you have it no Doctor wants to live in rural setting it's a hard core fact. Ian Scott Reply to @John Pokiok: Thats not really true. Being an ER doc is a different fish from a GP office setting. It requires an extension of training.If you open an ER then you have every issue from Intubation to trauma to poisoning, heart attack stroke, delivery etc. ER trained docs are a separate entity . You are asking a GP to be everything and have little backup and extended hours and then have a practice in the community. It takes a serious block of staff to do this around the clock. And to have surgical backups for obstetrics etc.And to then live in communities with 4K people is not easy. David Amos Reply to @John Pokiok: Many do when they retire Elaine MacDonald Reply to @John Pokiok: And yet we just had *2* doctors from US background move to Sackville to practice. It's not a matter of no doctors wanting to move to rural areas. David Amos Reply to @Elaine MacDonald: Maybe they are willing to cover the midnight shift ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "MinFinance / FinanceMin (FIN)" <fin.minfinance-financemin.

The letter is dated September 2, 2004 and is addressed to > “John Crosbie, c/o Greg G. Byrne, Suite 502, 570 Queen Street, > Fredericton, NB E3B 5E3”. In this letter Mr. Amos alludes to a > possible lawsuit against Patterson Palmer. > [16] Mr. Amos’ position is that simply because Justice Webb > was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer, he now has a conflict. In Wewaykum > Indian Band v. Her Majesty the Queen, 2003 SCC 45, [2003] 2 S.C.R. > 259, the Supreme Court of Canada noted that disqualification of a > judge is to be determined based on whether there is a reasonable > apprehension of bias: > 60 In Canadian law, one standard has now emerged as the > criterion for disqualification. The criterion, as expressed by de > Grandpré J. in Committee for Justice and Liberty v. National Energy > Board, …[[1978] 1 S.C.R. 369, 68 D.L.R. (3d) 716], at p. 394, is the > reasonable apprehension of bias: > … the apprehension of bias must be a reasonable one, held by > reasonable and right minded persons, applying themselves to the > question and obtaining thereon the required information. In the words > of the Court of Appeal, that test is "what would an informed person, > viewing the matter realistically and practically -- and having thought > the matter through -- conclude. Would he think that it is more likely > than not that [the decision-maker], whether consciously or > unconsciously, would not decide fairly." > > [17] The issue to be determined is whether an informed > person, viewing the matter realistically and practically, and having > thought the matter through, would conclude that Mr. Amos’ allegations > give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias. As this Court has > previously remarked, “there is a strong presumption that judges will > administer justice impartially” and this presumption will not be > rebutted in the absence of “convincing evidence” of bias (Collins v. > Canada, 2011 FCA 140 at para. 7, [2011] 4 C.T.C. 157 [Collins]. See > also R. v. S. (R.D.), [1997] 3 S.C.R. 484 at para. 32, 151 D.L.R. > (4th) 193). > > [18] The Ontario Court of Appeal in Rando Drugs Ltd. v. > Scott, 2007 ONCA 553, 86 O.R. (3d) 653 (leave to appeal to the Supreme > Court of Canada refused, 32285 (August 1, 2007)), addressed the > particular issue of whether a judge is disqualified from hearing a > case simply because he had been a member of a law firm that was > involved in the litigation that was now before that judge. The Ontario > Court of Appeal determined that the judge was not disqualified if the > judge had no involvement with the person or the matter when he was a > lawyer. The Ontario Court of Appeal also explained that the rules for > determining whether a judge is disqualified are different from the > rules to determine whether a lawyer has a conflict: > 27 Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary to a > finding that a trial judge has had some involvement in a case over > which he or she is now presiding. Where the judge had no involvement, > as here, it cannot be said that the judge is disqualified. > > > 28 The point can rightly be made that had Mr. Patterson been > asked to represent the appellant as counsel before his appointment to > the bench, the conflict rules would likely have prevented him from > taking the case because his firm had formerly represented one of the > defendants in the case. Thus, it is argued how is it that as a trial > judge Patterson J. can hear the case? This issue was considered by the > Court of Appeal (Civil Division) in Locabail (U.K.) Ltd. v. Bayfield > Properties Ltd., [2000] Q.B. 451. The court held, at para. 58, that > there is no inflexible rule governing the disqualification of a judge > and that, "[e]verything depends on the circumstances." > > > 29 It seems to me that what appears at first sight to be an > inconsistency in application of rules can be explained by the > different contexts and in particular, the strong presumption of > judicial impartiality that applies in the context of disqualification > of a judge. There is no such presumption in cases of allegations of > conflict of interest against a lawyer because of a firm's previous > involvement in the case. To the contrary, as explained by Sopinka J. > in MacDonald Estate v. Martin (1990), 77 D.L.R. (4th) 249 (S.C.C.), > for sound policy reasons there is a presumption of a disqualifying > interest that can rarely be overcome. In particular, a conclusory > statement from the lawyer that he or she had no confidential > information about the case will never be sufficient. The case is the > opposite where the allegation of bias is made against a trial judge. > His or her statement that he or she knew nothing about the case and > had no involvement in it will ordinarily be accepted at face value > unless there is good reason to doubt it: see Locabail, at para. 19. > > > 30 That brings me then to consider the particular circumstances > of this case and whether there are serious grounds to find a > disqualifying conflict of interest in this case. In my view, there are > two significant factors that justify the trial judge's decision not to > recuse himself. The first is his statement, which all parties accept, > that he knew nothing of the case when it was in his former firm and > that he had nothing to do with it. The second is the long passage of > time. As was said in Wewaykum, at para. 85: > To us, one significant factor stands out, and must inform > the perspective of the reasonable person assessing the impact of this > involvement on Binnie J.'s impartiality in the appeals. That factor is > the passage of time. Most arguments for disqualification rest on > circumstances that are either contemporaneous to the decision-making, > or that occurred within a short time prior to the decision-making. > 31 There are other factors that inform the issue. The Wilson > Walker firm no longer acted for any of the parties by the time of > trial.

Mr. Amos made it > clear during the hearing of this matter that the only reason for the > alleged conflict for Justice Webb was that he was a member of > Patterson Law and Patterson Palmer. This is simply not enough for > Justice Webb to be disqualified. Any involvement of Mr. Amos with > Patterson Law while Justice Webb was a member of that firm would have > had to occur over 10 years ago and even longer for the time when he > was a member of Patterson Palmer.

Bagot, 2000 MBCA 30, 145 Man. R. > (2d) 260, the Manitoba Court of Appeal found that there was no > reasonable apprehension of bias when a judge, who had been a member of > the law firm that had been retained by the accused, had no involvement > with the accused while he was a lawyer with that firm. > > [21] In Del Zotto v. Minister of National Revenue, [2000] 4 > F.C. 321, 257 N.R. 96, this court did find that there would be a > reasonable apprehension of bias where a judge, who while he was a > lawyer, had recorded time on a matter involving the same person who > was before that judge. However, this case can be distinguished as > Justice Webb did not have any time recorded on any files involving Mr. > Amos while he was a lawyer with Patterson Palmer or Patterson Law. > > [22] Mr. Amos also included with his submissions a CD. He > stated in his affidavit dated June 26, 2017 that there is a “true copy > of an American police surveillance wiretap entitled 139” on this CD. > He has also indicated that he has “provided a true copy of the CD > entitled 139 to many American and Canadian law enforcement authorities > and not one of the police forces or officers of the court are willing > to investigate it”. Since he has indicated that this is an “American > police surveillance wiretap”, this is a matter for the American law > enforcement authorities and cannot create, as Mr. Amos suggests, a > conflict of interest for any judge to whom he provides a copy. > > [23] As a result, there is no conflict or reasonable > apprehension of bias for Justice Webb and therefore, no reason for him > to recuse himself. > > [24] Mr. Amos alleged that Justice Near’s past professional > experience with the government created a “quasi-conflict” in deciding > the cross-appeal. Mr. Amos provided no details and Justice Near > confirmed that he had no prior knowledge of the matters alleged in the > Claim. Justice Near sees no reason to recuse himself. > > [25] Insofar as it is possible to glean the basis for Mr. > Amos’ allegations against Justice Gleason, it appears that he alleges > that she is incapable of hearing this appeal because he says he wrote > a letter to Brian Mulroney and Jean Chrétien in 2004.

In the circumstances, there is no reason > for Justice Gleason to recuse herself as the letter in question does > not give rise to a reasonable apprehension of bias. > > > III. Issue > > [26] The issue on the cross-appeal is as follows: Did the > Judge err in setting aside the Prothonotary’s Order striking the Claim > in its entirety without leave to amend and in determining that Mr. > Amos’ allegation that the RCMP barred him from the New Brunswick > legislature in 2004 was capable of supporting a cause of action? > > IV.

Did the Judge err in interfering with the > Prothonotary’s Order? > > [29] The Prothontoary’s Order accepted the following > paragraphs from the Crown’s submissions as the basis for striking the > Claim in its entirety without leave to amend: > > 17.
