LeBlanc working on federal budget that could keep Liberals in power
It's a spending plan that may never see the light of day as the three major opposition parties have vowed to topple the government
Dominic LeBlanc is quietly preparing a federal budget.
It’s a spending plan that ultimately may never see the light of day, but the New Brunswick MP, who is now the country’s finance minister, isn’t entertaining that possibility.
Onlookers are suggesting it could end up being the federal Liberal government’s very last chance to hold onto power for a little longer – potentially the final shot at surviving a confidence vote that would push back a federal election for at least another few months.
“We have started the process of preparing budgetary options,” LeBlanc said in an interview with Brunswick News. “Obviously, there will be a new leader elected in early March.
“It would not be responsible to have done none of the preparation for a potential budget.”
LeBlanc said he has asked his cabinet colleagues for their submissions and letters soliciting proposals from each department for funding in a 2025-26 budget have gone out.
But that’s amid everything else that’s going on.
It won’t be a Trudeau government budget, the current prime minister having promised to resign when his Liberal leadership successor is picked on March 9.
Parliament must then return by March 24 when prorogation ends.
All three major opposition parties have said they will defeat the minority Liberals as soon as possible.
All of that puts the chance of a budget in doubt.
“I’m not going to speculate on that,” LeBlanc said. “Who knows what the new prime minister will decide.
“There are a whole bunch of options.”
There is no constitutional requirement to pass a budget, or even have one.
It didn’t happen recently in the midst of the pandemic.
And if a new prime minister wants to completely avoid the prospect of losing a non-confidence vote after being just weeks on the job, they might just dissolve Parliament and trigger an election themselves.
But Donald Savoie, the Canada research chair in public administration and governance at the Université de Moncton, suggests that a newly picked Liberal leader, anointed as the country’s prime minister, could also call for a throne speech and then a budget in quick succession.
It’s a conversation LeBlanc will need to have immediately with the party’s next leader, he said.
A quick budget after a prorogation of Parliament has happened in the not-too-distant past.
In 2008, then Prime Minister Stephen Harper asked Gov. Gen. Michaëlle Jean to prorogue Parliament to avoid a vote of confidence.
The request was granted by Jean, and the prorogation lasted just under two months.
An opposition coalition fell apart shortly after, Parliament reconvened, and a Conservative budget passed with the support of the Liberals.
Savoie says the opportunity and responsibility in front of LeBlanc was likely a key factor in his decision to stay as finance minister and not seek a run at the party leadership.
“It’s not something you do easily, it requires an awful lot of planning,” Savoie said of a federal budget. “It requires an awful lot of decisions, it requires an awful lot of meetings with departmental officials, and the prime minister.
“To leave that with only two or three months to go, and appoint a new minister of finance, I think he looked at that and said ‘for the good of the country, for the good of our government, I have a responsibility to stay.’”
Savoie said that no matter what happens when Parliament returns, LeBlanc has the responsibility to begin putting together a spending plan.
“It’s not something that he can say ‘oh, no, we’re not going to do it,’” he said.
LeBlanc became in December the first federal finance minister representing a riding from New Brunswick in 136 years, since Sir Samuel Leonard Tilley in 1878, who was one of the fathers of Confederation.
He’s also the first Acadian ever to be appointed to the job.
If LeBlanc doesn’t get the opportunity to table a budget, it wouldn’t be a first.
Quebec MP Gilles Loiselle didn’t deliver one in his brief stint as finance minister under the short-lived Kim Campbell government.
Like former Prime Ministers Charles Tupper and John Turner, Campbell never faced a Parliament during her brief tenure, as her term was filled by the summer break and the election campaign.
But usually in February or March, the minister of finance presents the government’s budget, which outlines the government’s taxation and spending priorities for the coming fiscal year.
To spend funds, the government must request Parliament’s authorization through the review and approval of appropriation bills.
That typically happens through budget implementation bills that the government introduces following the budget.
One way or another, the government will need new authority to spend.
LeBlanc, who is also playing a lead government role in persuading U.S. President Donald Trump not to level crippling tariffs on Canada, could present a budget that promises needed supports for Canadian businesses and consumers trapped in a trade war.
The government would then put that to a vote.
Jamie Gillies, a political scientist at St. Thomas University, said that presents an opportunity for the government to stay in place.
“I think it all depends on who the Liberals select as their next leader,” Gillies said. “(Conservative Leader Pierre) Poilievre wants to trigger an election as soon as possible.
“But the looming threat of tariffs and negotiations with the Trump administration might mean that unifying behind a Team Canada approach is more important than an election to both voters and political parties.
“Perhaps it depends on how well (Liberal leadership candidates Mark) Carney or (Chrystia) Freeland can lead in terms of cutting deals with the NDP and or Bloc to hold on to government until a fall election.”
The New Brunswick MP has said he has the flexibility to act now in order to react with financial help in response to tariffs, but that the government would eventually need to go to Parliament.
“We have all the legal instruments under existing legislation to apply tariffs, to apply export controls, all of those instruments in place,” LeBlanc said. “There are ways that we can allocate money to existing programs that could support workers and businesses.
“There are legislative measures that would need to be enacted, but there is sufficient flexibility now in the short term to ensure that we’re in a position to support businesses and workers.”
He added: “We would put before Parliament in March any other measures that would be necessary.”

Medical society applauds 'fantastic' goal to have a doctor for everyone within 6 months
Health Minister Dorothy Shephard aims to provide doctor or nurse practitioner to every resident by September
Vanessa Blanch · CBC News · Posted: Apr 15, 2021 4:34 PM ADT
Dr. Jeff Steeves, president of the New Brunswick Medical Society, is pleased Health Minister Dorothy Shephard has set an ambitious goal to improve access to primary care within six months. (N.B. Medical Society)
Doctors in New Brunswick are ready to start working "immediately" with Health Minister Dorothy Shephard to achieve her target of providing a family physician or nurse practitioner to every resident of the province within six months.
Dr. Jeff Steeves, president of the New Brunswick Medical Society, said he's encouraging to hear a "hard goal" with measurable outcomes.
"I think it's fantastic that there's a line in the sand now and that there's a time frame," he said. "I think it is ambitious but that's what we need at this point."
On Monday, Shephard told CBC that she is "absolutely committed to eliminating the wait list on Patient Connect," which on Dec. 31, 2020, included the names of 44,226 people without a family doctor or nurse practitioner.
When asked what her time frame was to accomplish that goal, she replied: "I'm certainly looking within the next six months."
Work must start immediately
Steeves said after years of having tens of thousands of people without a primary care provider, the New Brunswick Medical Society will "enthusiastically" work with the Department of Health and the regional health authorities.
"That tripartite group working aggressively with a goal might actually move this forward," he said. "So I think the three groups have to be asked to get together immediately to come up with a plan."
In his mind, that plan will need to include aggressive recru.itment and an accurate list of the residents of New Brunswick who are without a family doctor or nurse practitioner.
Shephard said her staff are currently doing a "comprehensive outreach" to verify the names on the Patient Connect list.
"And there is a significant number — I'm not going to give you that number today until we get it finalized — but there's a significant number who have not been able to be reached by not only several calls, and then a letter has gone out, and then we're doing seven more calls after that."
Shephard said if people cannot be reached, they will be removed from the list.

Recruitment will be key
Shephard is not satisfied with the "recruitment process," which was recently taken away from the regional health authorities.
"I've … been told that I have family physicians who want to come home to practise here, and they can't even get a call back. So that's why we've taken recruitment into the Department of Health to lead it, working with our partners at the [regional health authorities] and the medical society and our associations."
It is challenging to recruit people because we are one of the poorer provinces … when you get a contact, be able to follow them up, so that you don't lose them, and then encourage them to get here.
- Dr. Jeff Steeves, N.B. Medical Society
Steeves said doctors want to help with the effort to attract more physicians to the province.
"The number one recruiter for a physician is a physician," he said. "You need to have a physician that can share that this is a good place to work, that you're among a community of physicians that that are going to appreciate you being here and support your being here."
He believes the first place to focus is on the 60 New Brunswick medical students graduating each year.
"Their training gets finished in June of each year, and that's when they're looking for where to go. So we need to try to capture as many of those as possible right now."
Steeves said the province should be trying to keep as many of those medical students who will go on to become family doctors and specialists in the the province as possible.
He hopes the government will spend the $11 million in the budget that's been allocated for physician recruitment on advertising and building relationships with doctors who show interest.
"It is challenging to recruit people because we are one of the poorer provinces," Steeves said. "And when you get a contact, be able to follow them up so that you don't lose them and then encourage them to get here."

Medical society calls for change to organ donor program
In New Brunswick, only 30% of residents have indicated they would like to be organ donors
Elizabeth Fraser · CBC News · Posted: Apr 23, 2021 1:42 PM ADT
Dr. Jeff Steeves, president of the New Brunswick Medical Society, is calling for a change to the province's organ donor program. (New Brunswick Medical Society)
The president of the New Brunswick Medical Society is calling on government officials to adopt legislation for presumed consent, making every resident an organ donor unless they opt out.
"There's a win for the donor's family at one of the worst times in their life," said Dr. Jeff Steeves, president of the New Brunswick Medical Society.
"There's the win for the recipient and there's the win for the health system."
A total of 3,014 organ transplant procedures were performed in Canada in 2019, an increase of 42 per cent since 2010, according to the Canadian Organ Replacement Register.
But Steeves said there's still a real need for solid organ transplants.
'There's quite a gap'
In New Brunswick, only 30 per cent of residents have indicated they would like to be organ donors. He expects a lot of it to be an oversight from New Brunswickers.
"We know from studies that approximately 90 per cent of the population are willing to be donors," he said. "So there's quite a gap."
Right now, New Brunswick has an opt in program for organ and tissue donation, where a potential donor has to show on their Medicare application that they want to be a donor. The consent indicator is in a small box to the right side of a person's name on the two page form to obtain a Medicare card.
"It's easy to miss," he said.
In 2019, former Health Minister Ted Flemming said he would consider presumed consent for organ and tissue donation.
People's Alliance MLA Michelle Conroy also tabled a motion in 2019 to make organ donation a law in New Brunswick.
Myths about organ donation
Steeves said there are myths around organ donation. Some believe it might shorten efforts to save a potential donor's life.
"The decision is made when full resuscitative measures have been completed, but there is brain death and circulatory system is still going."
This typically happens in the intensive care unit of a hospital. Then, family members would be approached to ask for consent.
"None of the life-saving endeavours would be shortened."
In January 2021, Nova Scotia became the first province to pass the Human Organ and Tissue Donation Act, making every individual a potential organ donor unless they choose to opt out.

Doug Currie seeks federal Conservative nomination in Charlottetown
2nd time the former provincial politician has vied to represent the riding in Ottawa

Doug Currie, a former P.E.I. Liberal MLA and cabinet minister, is looking to become the Conservative Party of Canada's candidate for the Charlottetown riding in the next federal election.
This would be Currie's second attempt at representing Charlottetown as a Conservative after winning the party's nomination in 2021, and later losing to incumbent Liberal MP Sean Casey in that year's federal election.
"I am ready to bring my experience, drive and passion to be a strong voice in Ottawa to represent the constituents of Charlottetown as their Member of Parliament on the issues that matter to them," Currie said in a statement Wednesday.
Currie became MLA for Charlottetown-Parkdale in 2007 and held the seat for a decade with stints in cabinet as minister of both health and education.
Casey has been the MP for Charlottetown since 2011.
"Charlottetown needs an MP to stand up for them in Ottawa versus [toeing] the line for Justin Trudeau and his policies that have made life unaffordable," Currie said in the statement.
Currie is currently vice-president of corporate and strategic development at Holland College, a post-secondary school in Charlottetown.
A federal election must be held by October 2025.

Vitalité seeks to renovate or replace Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital, submits plan to province
20-bed hospital in Sainte-Anne-de-Kent was built in the 1960s
Vitalité Health Network is looking to either renovate or replace the Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital, which is nearly 60 years old.
The regional health authority has submitted a plan to the province outlining options for the future of the aging hospital in Sainte-Anne-de-Kent, about 60 kilometres north of Moncton.
Board chair Tom Soucy announced the plan during Tuesday's board meeting. It was prepared with the support of an external firm and input from experts and community members, including the Kent Regional Service Commission, he said.
"The Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital was built in the '60s. Like many hospitals in our network, it requires growing maintenance," he said.
"The plan includes two different scenarios, allowing us to make sure that we have a long-term vision for the Stella-Maris-de Kent Hospital," Soucy said, without elaborating.

collaboration from the community in preparing the report. (Ed Hunter/CBC)
In an interview after the meeting, assistant CEO Patrick Parent declined to divulge any specifics before discussions with the provincial government.
But he said the plan was based on projected patient volumes over the next 20 years and the types of services that will be required.
Essentially it proposes "renovation to the existing facility and, wherever the need exists, expansion for certain services," said Parent.
"Another option is, is it more cost effective over time to look at a newer facility?"
Commitment to maintain a hospital
The Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital has undergone modernization projects since it opened in 1966, including the Kent County Extra‑Mural Program moving in in 1993, and a new emergency department opening in 2005, according to Vitalité's website.
Last January, Vitalité announced acute care beds at the Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital would temporarily be converted to palliative and long-term care beds, due to a shortage of medical resources, and that patients from the emergency department or the community who required hospital admission would be transferred to the Dr. Georges-L.-Dumont University Hospital Centre in Moncton.
The measure was expected to last "a few months," but a year later, the acute care beds have not been restored, and staffing challenges continue.
Asked whether area residents can feel assured that they will continue to have a hospital in their community with at least the same level of services and hours, Parent replied, "That question came on several occasions, and that commitment was made" by president and CEO Dr. France Desrosiers.
"There is a long-term commitment to the hospital, and the community."
Parent could not estimate how long it might be before any decisions are made or changes occur, as it's now in the government's hands, but did stress that it's very early in the process.
'Very important' hospital
The Department of Health received the report from Vitalité on Wednesday, said spokesperson Sean Hatchard.
"As the operation lead of the Stella-Maris-de-Kent Hospital, Vitalité is expected to propose improvements to its health-care facilities," he said in an emailed statement.
"The department is looking forward to reviewing the materials it has received."
Vitalité plans to present the report to elected officials on Feb. 6.
Benoît Bourque, the Liberal MLA for Beausoleil-Grand-Bouctouche-Kent, said he plans to attend to learn more.
He suspects the 20-bed hospital will require a significant investment with either option, given its aging infrastructure and "limited space," and is pleased the planning process has begun.

Bourque, the Liberal MLA for Beausoleil-Grand-Bouctouche-Kent, says he
was not involved in preparing the report but he believes 'a major
renovation or a completely new building' are logical choices, given the
age of the hospital. (Google Meet/CBC)
The hospital, which serves more than 30,000 people — francophones, anglophones and members of three First Nation communities — is a priority to his constituents, he said, especially those who are aging and have limited financial resources.
"For them to travel to Moncton or the Miramichi is more of a challenge and they have more health-care issues, you know, more chronic illnesses because of the age."
In addition, Kent County is a "major transportation corridor" between the Moncton area and the northern part of the province, mainly through Route 11, where motor vehicle collisions often occur, said Bourque.
"So a hospital is very, very important, that has not only a properly functioning emergency room, but also acute care, which is currently closed. And I'm hoping sooner than later they will reopen."
Paul Lang, CEO of the Kent Regional Service Commission, thanked Vitalité at Tuesday's board meeting for the report "that shows the needs of the community that will be using this essential infrastructure" and urged action.
"We have to get together as a community and mobilize our regional politicians to make sure that the … projects that were identified in the [report] could be put in place as quickly as possible because, as you know, the hospital is over 50 years old and requires a lot of love and attention," he said in French.
$78K stay at resort criticized; deputy says it's 'best value for money'
Taxpayer group rips two-night stay of 90 leaders from the Department of Justice and Public Safety
A trip last week by 90 senior provincial civil servants for two nights at the luxury Algonquin resort for professional development training sends the wrong message to struggling taxpayers, says a watchdog.
It’s the third year in a row the Department of Justice and Public Safety has taken such a trip for leadership training, which this time cost an estimated $77,875. It included a two-night stay at the hotel, meeting rooms, meals, speaker costs, simultaneous translation and audiovisual services.
The professional development and team-building exercise in the resort town of Saint Andrews in the southwestern corner of the province was planned and approved last July, when the previous Progressive Conservative government was in power.
“That works out to about $865 for each civil servant,” said Devin Drover, the Atlantic spokesman for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. “That’s what a lot of Canadian families spend on their groceries for the month. It sends the wrong message about how their tax dollars are being spent, and I’m sure a lot of New Brunswickers would love to spend two days in a hotel with catered meals but simply cannot afford to do so right now.”
Mike Comeau, the deputy minister who approved the training, said leadership development and team-building exercises are crucial for any good organization, especially one with 1,900 employees spread across the province.
And he said staying at the Algonquin, where rooms were $170 a night, was the best value for that many people anywhere in the province. The civil servants checked in Wednesday night and attended sessions from 8:15 a.m. to the end of business hours on Thursday and Friday.
I’m sure a lot of New Brunswickers would love to spend two days in a hotel with catered meals but simply cannot afford to do so.
Devin Drover
The deputy minister said the sessions, which included a presentation from workplace leadership expert Pierre Battah, only included the senior-most personnel – directors and up – and not the entire complement of the department’s 300 managers.
“Any high-performing organization has to pay attention to these things,” Comeau said in an interview on Friday. “Getting people together occasionally, the most senior leaders in the organization with a carefully built agenda and some experts and some time to build teams as well, helps keep us a high-performing organization. New Brunswickers deserve us to be that.”
Asked to comment, Premier Susan Holt released a prepared statement late Friday afternoon.
“We know our province needs a strong public safety team,” she said. “As a new government, we’ve got an eagle eye on the bottom line and will be doing the work to ensure the most efficient use of resources and providing the best value for New Brunswickers.”
Comeau said his department has its share of recruitment and retention challenges that had to be addressed. In bad years, he said, one-fifth of the employees leave, either by quitting or retiring.
“Much of the work we do involves dealing with New Brunswickers on the worst day of their lives or days of their lives,” he said. “We’re talking about front-line inspectors, and enforcement officers who are delivering bad news to people almost all day every day.
“We’re talking about correctional officers and case workers and social workers who work in jails, we’re talking about people who work in courthouses. We’re talking about people who prosecute crimes and who do child protection work. That work isn’t for everyone.”
Given those stressors, he said it was crucial that his organization’s leaders had the right training. Last year, they also went to the Algonquin in January, and the year before, they did the leadership development at a hotel in Moncton.
Comeau wanted a location where the senior executives could all stay under one roof, leaving them with only a few options.
“We’ve done this before in locations where we couldn’t have everybody under the same roof, and we don’t get the same level of team building in the evenings.
“There are minimal distractions here. So, when dinner is over, there’s an opportunity to socialize and get to know their colleagues, some of whom they’d only see once a year or even less frequently. That’s been hugely valuable for team building.”
Comeau has been in charge of the department for seven and half years. Every year of tenure, he has stayed within the government’s allotted department budget. Drilling it down, the department’s training, development and travel budget is $4.4 million annually, and includes the latest meeting.
This is not a retreat, there’s no luxury.
Mike Comeau
But in the taxpayer federation’s mind, the stay in Saint Andrews shows a civil service out of touch with ordinary New Brunswickers.
“This is a problem within the culture of the civil service,” Drover said. “Last year, we saw increased spending under premier Blaine Higgs, and it happened in anticipation of a fall election.
“Now, it looks like Premier Susan Holt is being noncommittal about ensuring there won’t be a deficit, which would be the first time in a long time. So, $78,000 might seem like a small portion of the entire provincial budget, but it speaks to the culture of bureaucrats spending tax dollars. It sounds like this training could have been done during business hours, and not at a resort.”
The deputy minister said he realized high inflation had hit New Brunswickers hard and that affordability was a burning issue.
“I do understand that the Algonquin has a particular symbolic meaning to people. In the end, we had long, hard conversations about that and decided if it’s the best value for money of the options we could find in the province, then we hope that people will understand.
“This is not a retreat, there’s no luxury. This is a place that has room for 90 people at $170 a night. It is a lot of money, but this is necessary work to be a high-performance organization, and we hope – I hope – New Brunswickers would accept that.”
Province has agreed to share details of my Horizon payout: Dornan
Former Horizon boss who's now the health minister was fired in July 2022 after patient's death
Health Minister Dr. John Dornan says New Brunswickers will know “sooner than later” exactly how much money he received from a legal victory over the provincial government.
A few days after a Fredericton patient’s death in July 2022, Dornan was publicly dumped as Horizon Health Network president and CEO by then-premier Blaine Higgs.
Dornan responded by filing a wrongful dismissal complaint, and was awarded $2 million by a labour adjudicator. The province appealed that ruling, but eventually settled with Dornan out of court early last year for an undisclosed amount.
The settlement included a non-disclosure agreement, which Dornan said he’s waived because he wants to be transparent.
On Wednesday, the MLA for Saint John Portland-Simonds said the government has agreed to follow suit, and that his lawyer and government lawyers are tweaking a few details in the agreement to allow the numbers in the settlement to be publicly shared.
“They haven’t given me a time frame when they would get back on it, but I don’t expect it to be a long time, because you have two parties that are in complete agreement,” Dornan said. “It’s just the wording of the appendix to that NDA.
“The government lawyers are fine. My lawyer’s fine. I’m fine. Government’s fine. It’s just the language of the amendment.”
Dornan later added that Premier Susan Holt “said we should be transparent,” and that he agrees with her.
“You know, there are some things people like to keep to themselves … but this is something that government is paying as tax dollars, and so I think we should be transparent.”
While he couldn’t give a timeline for when the number will be released, Dornan said it will likely happen “sooner than later.”

Auditor general won't talk about a dozen departures from his office
https://tj.news/telegraph-jour
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada
N.B. government disputes findings of audit, says 'COVID core' had no
decision-making power
'Only cabinet made decisions,' says spokesperson Bruce Macfarlane
Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon · CBC News · Posted: Sep 08, 2023 7:19 PM ADT
A man and a woman sit at a desk in the legislature.Auditor General
Paul Martin told the legislature's standing committee on public
accounts Thursday that 'a process was created whereby the Department
of Health would bring forward advice to COVID core who would then
review, challenge and provide strategic thought around the
information.' Department of Health advice would then proceed to the
cabinet committee on COVID-19 and on to cabinet, he said. (Jacques
Poitras/CBC)
The New Brunswick COVID core, presented in the auditor general's
pandemic review as being third in the "COVID-19 decision-making
hierarchy," after cabinet and the cabinet committee on COVID-19, had
no decision-making power, according to the government.
"The [organizational] structure listed in the auditor general's report
is not a structure of the hierarchy of decision making," Bruce
Macfarlane, acting senior director of media relations for the
executive council, said in an emailed statement Friday.
"Only cabinet made decisions."
Macfarlane did not comment directly on the Office of the Chief Medical
Officer of Health being at the bottom of the list in auditor general's
report. But he did say Dr. Jennifer Russell or her designate "provided
advice to cabinet when public health proposals were made to
government."
N.B.'s top doctor at bottom of COVID-19 decision-making hierarchy,
auditor general finds
In a statement, Auditor General Paul Martin agreed cabinet made
pandemic-related decisions, gave final approvals and records of those
decision were drafted.
But he noted "decisions were made in various components about what
information, advice, and recommendations would flow upward through
various components of the pandemic response co-ordination
organizational chart until it reached cabinet for final decision."
"Typically, everything that was submitted to cabinet related to the
pandemic went through COVID core first," his audit of the government's
pandemic response states.
An organizational chart.
The 'COVID-19 decision-making hierarchy' chart in the auditor
general's report is incorrect, according to government spokesperson
Bruce Macfarlane. The COVID core was not a decision-making body, he
said. (Office of the Auditor General)
On Thursday, when Martin presented his report to the legislature's
standing committee on public accounts, he said he obtained the
information from the Department of Health. The report lists the source
of the "decision-making hierarchy" as being "adapted from the New
Brunswick Provincial Pandemic Coordination Plan (unaudited)."
The COVID core was among the highlights of Martin's report because he
found the group of seven senior government officials did not maintain
any records — no minutes of meetings, no discussion notes and no
agendas.
In addition, there were "no formal documents that define the purpose,
expectations, and roles and responsibilities of COVID core," according
to his report.
Several MLAs remarked that they didn't recall any such group,
including Green Party Leader David Coon, who was a member of the COVID
cabinet committee.
Created by clerk of executive council
CBC requested an interview with Russell through the Department of
Health and an interview with Premier Blaine Higgs through his office.
Instead, Macfarlane sent the emailed statement.
COVID core was created by the clerk of the executive council when the
pandemic began, he said, providing a link to the provincial pandemic
co-ordination plan, which was published at that time and includes one
reference to the then-four-member group in an "organizational chart,"
in second place, under the premier and executive council.
It served the function of reviewing, challenging and providing
strategic thought to ensure advice to the cabinet committee was coming
from a whole-of-government and whole-of-society perspective.
- Bruce Macfarlane, government spokesperson
"It served the function of reviewing, challenging and providing
strategic thought to ensure advice to the cabinet committee was coming
from a whole-of-government and whole-of-society perspective.
"COVID was not a one-department issue and COVID core ensured there was
co-ordination with issues that needed to be addressed across
departments."
According to auditor general's report, members of the COVID core included:
Clerk of executive council (ECO).
Deputy minister of Justice and Public Safety.
Deputy minister of Health.
Deputy minister of corporate communications (ECO).
Deputy chief operating officer (ECO).
Provincial security adviser, Justice and Public Safety.
Assistant deputy minister of Public Health.
They "had a huddle" each morning while the mandatory order was in
place, Macfarlane said.
"This is a normal function the Executive Council Office does working
with deputy ministers daily after cabinet direction," he said.
It enabled departments to be better prepared to answer questions and
for the government to prepare initial communications "as decisions
were regularly swift and required immediate communication with the
public."
Asked why the COVID core did not keep any records, he reiterated that
it "did daily huddles. It was not a decision-making body."
Members briefed others on cabinet decisions
The membership increased as the pandemic progressed, said Macfarlane.
"Additional members were required for areas of expertise and were
invited by the clerk of the executive council."
The COVID core operated until the mandatory order ended in March 2022,
said Macfarlane.
"With rare exceptions, members of the team attended every meeting and
teleconference of the COVID cabinet committee and of cabinet, at which
COVID was discussed, throughout the relevant period," he said.
"Individual members also briefed legislative assembly caucuses,
municipal officials, the Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Jennifer
Russell, critical infrastructure owners/operators and law enforcement
leaders regularly, on the decisions taken by cabinet and the orders
made by the minister of Public Safety on the basis of those
decisions."

René Boudreau named Chief Executive Officer of the New Brunswick Medical Society
05-15-2023
The New Brunswick Medical Society (NBMS) is very pleased to announce
the appointment of Mr. René Boudreau as the Society’s new CEO.
Mr. Boudreau’s 20 years of combined experience at the executive level
within the healthcare, postsecondary education, research and
innovation, economic development and intergovernmental affairs sectors
provide him with a strong foundation upon which to lead the New
Brunswick Medical Society.
“René brings a wealth of experience from the provincial civil service
to the NBMS, said Dr. Chris Goodyear, NBMS Board Chairman. “At a time
when government will be making significant investments in health care,
his understanding of system change and governance will help address
the Society’s priorities of improving primary care access, developing
and supporting collaborative care models, decreasing surgical wait
lists and addressing physician retention and recruitment. We believe
his strong leadership and knowledge of New Brunswick healthcare is the
right combination to lead the NBMS to deliver change while ensuring
quality care for our patients.”
Reporting to the Board of Directors, as the new CEO, Mr. Boudreau will
be responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the NBMS
and the general management of the Society while representing New
Brunswick physicians and advocating for the health of patients to the
government, provincial and national partner organizations, as well as
the public. He will work with the Board to set strategic direction and
lead the team to undertake activities that will accomplish our shared
objectives. Working closely with the NBMS Board of physician leaders,
he will seek to advance the performance of the health system through
physician leadership and patient engagement.
“It is a great honor and opportunity to take on this leadership role
with the New Brunswick Medical Society at such an important and
pivotal time for our health system,” said Mr. Boudreau. “I strongly
believe that the innovative solutions needed to overcome today’s
challenges and improve the health outcomes of New Brunswickers will
come from physicians, healthcare professionals and their patients. I
look forward to working with our members and partner organizations to
help bring these innovative ideas to life and transform our health
system.”
Mr. Boudreau joins the organization on June 12th, 2023.

Before writs were dropped in BC and NS The VERY UNETHICAL "Journalist"
David Akin scores a new job as CHIEF POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT Global
News???
Methinks that by now mindless David Akin would have figured out that
just like one of my favourite artists Gordy Lightfoot I am still alive
and kicking. However if you scroll to the bottom of this blog you will
see byway of his Tweets Davey Boy continues to ignore my emails even
after I talk to his lawyer and send them both a Hell of an email. Go
figure why I am not surprised. EH Commissioner Bobby Paulson of the
RCMP?
Do tell does the CBC or the CRTC or CTV or Roger TV or even CPAC or
anyone else recall back in 2015 when I stress tested the ethics of
David Boy Akin and his gal pal Kady Baby O'Malley about voting etc
during and after the election of the 42nd Parliament? I did that years
after I talked to Akin the first in in 2004 when he worked for CTV and
about 2 years or so after Kady had blocked me within Twitter when she
and her snobby buddies such as Jesse Brown, Jian Ghomeshi, Greg Weston
and Evan Solomon used to work for CBC too.

Rhonda Brown
Supervising Producer
902 481 4440
Rhonda is a journalist with more than 24 years experience in the
television industry.
As Supervising Producer, she works with news staff in Halifax and New
Brunswick in the gathering the day’s stories and getting them to air
on Global News at 6 pm.
Born in Newfoundland and raised in Ottawa, she’s lived in Halifax for
more than 22 years.
She’s held a variety of roles with both Global News and CBC over her
career, with a brief foray into public relations.
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).

At Horizon Health Network we are extremely appreciative for the
support of our Foundations, Auxiliaries, and Alumnae. These
organizations provide funding and support for much needed equipment,
programs and projects. This support continues to allow Horizon Health
Network to provide the best possible patient care. Our volunteers are
equally important as they provide much needed emotional support and
assist with our patient care by reading, writing, cooking, delivering
flowers, or sitting with someone who might not have family nearby.
Whichever way you choose to give, your gift is valued and appreciated.

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

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.

Reply to @David Amos: Methinks everybody knows since the time of

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??

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

However I can be as crazy as i want to be Higgy should ask the shinks

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/m/pubmed/28615177/ ). Advanced care
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.

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.

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.

>
> [2] On November 12, 2015 (Docket T-1557-15), by way of a
> motion brought by the Crown, a prothonotary of the Federal Court (the
> Prothonotary) struck the Claim in its entirety, without leave to

> disclosed no reasonable claim, the Claim was fundamentally vexatious,
> and the Claim could not be salvaged by way of further amendment (the
> Prothontary’s Order).
>
>
> [3] On January 25, 2016 (2016 FC 93), by way of Mr.
> Amos’ appeal from the Prothonotary’s Order, a judge of the Federal
> Court (the Judge), reviewing the matter de novo, struck all of Mr.
> Amos’ claims for relief with the exception of the claim for damages
> for being barred by the RCMP from the New Brunswick legislature in
> 2004 (the Federal Court Judgment).
>
>
> [4] Mr. Amos appealed and the Crown cross-appealed the

> [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

> rules to determine whether a lawyer has a conflict:
> 27 Thus, disqualification is not the natural corollary to a

'Process failed' in travel-nurse contracts, former PC health minister says
'Process failed' in travel-nurse contracts, former PC health minister says
Dorothy Shephard says ‘more investigation’ may be needed into invoices paid without proper documentation
Former
health minister Dorothy Shephard, shown here in a file photo, told a
legislative committee the travel nurse contracts need more
investigation. (Michel Corriveau/Radio-Canada)A former provincial health minister in the Progressive Conservative government says key failures at the heart of the costly travel-nurse contracts may need more investigation.
Progressive Conservative MLA Dorothy Shephard made the comments Tuesday during the first of three days of hearings by the legislature's public accounts committee.
She told Eric Beaulieu, the deputy minister at the Health Department, that she was struck by how many invoices were paid to private travel-nurse companies without proper documentation of services being delivered.
"Process is what protects everybody," Shephard said. "I think one of the big concerns with the auditor general's report is that somehow, process failed.
"It didn't just fail in one sector. It failed over three separate entities, and that's cause for a little bit of concern, I think, and maybe even more investigation."
Eric
Beaulieu, deputy minister of health, said the health system was under
strain and shortcuts were taken to sign the contracts. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)
Beaulieu was the deputy minister of social development when that department signed a contract with Canadian Health Labs Inc. for travel nurses in long-term care in early 2022.
He became deputy minister of health on June 30, 2022, just 29 days before the first of three travel-nurse contracts was signed between the Vitalité health authority and Canadian Health Labs, a private company.
Beaulieu said the system was under severe staffing pressures at the time "and obviously shortcuts were done" in the accounts payable process.
Former health minister laments ‘process failure’ on travel nurses
Shephard acknowledged that the COVID-19 pandemic was creating widespread staff shortages but argued this ought not to have affected how bills were paid.
"I can easily understand the need to get bodies to the front line," said the Saint John Lancaster MLA, who is not running again in this year's election. "That's a really easy no-brainer.
"But the process for paying invoices is usually pretty much the same, day in and day out. That's why I'm concerned about that failure in process."
Shephard's comments at the committee are her first public remarks on the travel-nurse controversy since Auditor General Paul Martin released a scathing audit on the contracts earlier this month.
She turned down a request from reporters to elaborate during a break in Tuesday's committee session.
Martin's audit reported that:
-
The Social Development Department paid Canadian Health Labs without requiring evidence that work was done and without ensuring the amounts complied with the long-term-care home contract in early 2022.
-
The department paid travel expense claims based on missing or incomplete information.
-
Horizon Health paid many travel expense claims to its travel-nurse providers without documentation, and some payments were higher than what was allowed under their contracts.
-
More than one-quarter of $23 million worth of work-hour invoices to Vitalité that Martin examined were paid despite not having required signatures from hospital supervisors.
-
Vitalité also paid many invoices without proper documents, including for car rentals, accommodation and meals.
Martin's report examining $173 million in spending on travel-nurse contracts, including $98 million paid by Vitalité to Canadian Health Labs, has become a major political issue for the Higgs government.
Beaulieu backed up statements by Health Minister Bruce Fitch earlier this month that officials at the Health Department only began to realize in early 2023 how much the health authorities were spending on travel nurses.

Shephard said she was struck by how many invoices were paid to private
travel-nurse companies without proper documentation of services being
delivered. (Attorney General of New Brunswick annual report)
Vitalité's contracts with Canadian Health Labs continues until 2026 and allows the company to be paid in some cases where there's no need for its nurses.
It also allows for the contract to be renewed automatically at that time as long as the company meets certain language service thresholds.
Social Development Minister Jill Green said in the legislature earlier this month that the government was looking for ways to "extricate" Vitalité from its contract.
Beaulieu told the committee Tuesday that "our ability to intervene on any of the contracts is non-existent."
Auditor
General Paul Martin's report on the travel nurse contracts used this
example of a Canada Health Labs invoice, which he said 'does not include
staff names, locations or dates of work.' (Attorney General of New Brunswick annual report)
He said government lawyers have been giving the health authority advice on how to lower its costs under the contract, but the department's focus has been to reduce the need for travel nurses by recruiting more nurses to work directly in the system.
"The only way to eliminate the need for travel nurses on an ongoing basis is to have more human resources," Beaulieu said.
Beaulieu said 12.6 per cent of nurse positions in the health care system are vacant now.

Former PC minister questions travel-nurse exemption granted by colleague
MLA Ross Wetmore says small Social Development contract 'ballooned' into $173M expense
Former
PC cabinet minister Ross Wetmore criticized the government’s handling
of travel-nurse contracts during the pandemic. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)For the second straight day, a former Progressive Conservative cabinet minister has strongly criticized the PC government's handling of costly travel-nurse contracts.
Gagetown-Petitcodiac MLA Ross Wetmore suggested that Service New Brunswick Minister Mary Wilson should have taken a closer look in 2022 before signing an emergency exemption that allowed contracts to be awarded without a competitive bidding process.
"When funding came across my desk, I asked questions," Wetmore, a former minister of agriculture, aquaculture and fisheries, told reporters.
"If something was a million dollars and they asked for a minister's exemption, I'd be asking questions."

2022 allowing the contracts to go ahead. (Jacques Poitras/CBC )
The exemptions were approved by the deputy minister of social development, using a regulation that allows departments to bypass normal procurement rules in an emergency.
But because the deals were worth more than $1 million, the exemptions required the approval of the minister of Service New Brunswick, which oversees contracting, before the contracts could be signed.
Former PC minister questions lack of legal advice on travel nurses
Wetmore said, during a meeting of the legislature's public accounts committee, that the two seemingly small contracts set the stage for the $173 million that taxpayers have now forked over for travel nurses — with more costs still to come.
"The door got opened with Social Development," Wetmore told the department's deputy minister, Jim Mehan, saying a $2.7 million agreement with Canadian Health Labs Inc. had "ballooned" and "snowballed" into the much larger sum.
"I'm sorry I'm picking on you," he told Mehan, "but … this is where it started."
Service New Brunswick did not acknowledge a request for an interview with Wilson about the exemption she approved, but spokesperson Jennifer Vienneau said in a written statement that "SNB only approves the exemption to the procurement process, not the contract."
She said Wilson's approval in 2022 followed regulations under the Procurement Act and was granted "in response to the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic at that time."
A 'failure in process'
The travel-nurse contracts have become a major political headache for the Higgs government in the wake of a scathing report by Auditor General Paul Martin.
On Tuesday, former health minister Dorothy Shephard called the contracts — one of which is still in force and can be renewed automatically — a "failure in process."
Social Development signed the first two agreements in early 2022 with two companies that provided nurses and other staff to fill severe staffing shortages in long-term care homes, caused in part by COVID-19 outbreaks.
"Obviously we exhausted as many possible options as we could prior to that," Mehan told the committee.
He said based on "quick research," the department identified four potential travel-nurse suppliers, and Canadian Health Labs and another agency, Plan A, were "the only two at the time that could provide resources immediately. … We did what we had to do."
Jim Mehan, deputy minister of Service New Brunswick, said the contracts
did not favour the province, but options were limited. (Jacques
Poitras/CBC)
The result, he said, was that the department signed contracts drafted by the companies themselves.
"These contracts did not favour GNB," he said.
He confirmed that he signed one of the contracts when he was acting deputy minister and the other was signed by Elizabeth Dubee, then the assistant deputy minister for seniors and long-term care.
She had experience negotiating contracts and signed the Canadian Health Labs agreement without the benefit of legal advice, Mehan said — a fact that Wetmore said he found disturbing as a former cabinet minister from 2018 to 2020.
As a minister, he was not allowed to sign a contract worth more than $500,000 without additional layers of scrutiny, he told Mehan.
"I understand the sense of urgency, but I don't think we can use that as a legitimate reason or excuse.
"Never once have I been able to go in, tell them 'this is what it is, take it or leave it,' and gotten a contract."
Should have negotiated 'harder'
According to Martin's audit, Canadian Health Labs forced the province to agree to a bundled team of registered nurses, licensed practical nurses and personal support workers at $9,995 per day for "up to" eight hours of work — even if they weren't all needed.
"I cannot understand the province of New Brunswick agreeing to CHL — I don't care how hard up we are — to take a bundle when we don't need everybody," Wetmore said.
As a cabinet minister and a business owner, he later told reporters, "never once have I ever gone in … and said, 'Listen, you don't want widgets, but you're going to get widgets whether you want them or not.'"
The veteran MLA, who is retiring this year after 14 years in the legislature, said he believes if the province had "negotiated a lot harder," it might have obtained better terms from the company.
Social Development's agreements ended in 2022, but the Vitalité health authority is still under contract with the company until 2026.
Vitalité's three contracts with Canadian Health Labs have cost a total of $98 million, Martin's audit revealed.
"What the [Social Development] department has done is opened up the door," Wetmore said.
"This has ballooned from when you folks started … and it hasn't stopped yet."
Officials from Vitalité are scheduled to take questions from the committee starting at 9 a.m. Thursday.

Vitalité CEO says top health official gave 'green light' to travel-nurse contracts
France Desrosiers says Higgs government turned down other options that would have cost less
The CEO of the Vitalité health authority says costly travel nurse contracts were the result of pressure from the Higgs government to fix the health-care system quickly — and a refusal by that same government to approve other, less expensive options.
Dr. France Desrosiers told a committee of MLAs Thursday morning the health network was given a "mandate" in the summer of July 2022 to rapidly improve health care following the death of a patient in a Fredericton hospital emergency department.
"We were mandated to fix the situation quickly," she said. "The pressure was high. It was one minute to midnight."
Vitalité was in the midst of a staffing crisis at the time that left the authority on the verge of closing hospital emergency departments in two regional hospitals, the CEO said.
Dozens of other departments were unable to function, she added. Dialysis patients who normally required four hours of treatment were getting three hours.
Desrosiers said she met at the time with the new deputy minister in the health department, Eric Beaulieu, who promised to provide funding if travel-nurse costs put Vitalité into a deficit.
Earlier
this week Beaulieu, in his own appearance at the committee, backed up
the health minister's claim that the cost implications only became clear
to the department in early 2023. (Jacques Poitras/CBC)
She said she would not have signed the contracts otherwise.
"He used those words, 'I'm giving you the green light to go ahead,'" Desrosiers told MLAs on the legislature's public accounts committee.
"'It's understood that this will cost tens of millions of dollars?'' she recalled saying in the meeting.
"'Yes, it's understood,'" she quoted Beaulieu responding.
Vitalité offered Higgs government 9 options to reduce use of travel nurses
Earlier this week Beaulieu, in his own appearance at the committee, backed up Health Minister Bruce Fitch's claim that the cost implications of the contracts only became clear to the department in early 2023.
In a written statement, Fitch said Desrosier's comments "appear to be designed to deflect from the organization taking responsibility for their actions."
He pointed out that Vitalité paid "significantly more" for travel nurses than Horizon Health — something Desrosiers has explained stems from its greater need for bilingual personnel.
Fitch also claimed that some MLAs "chose to use today to attack hard-working public servants," though he didn't elaborate.
Lack of due diligence, auditor general says
Vitalité's leadership was the last group of officials to respond to the committee's questions following a scathing report by Auditor General Paul Martin that slammed what he called a lack of due diligence in the awarding of $173 million in travel nurse contracts.
Health authority officials said the spending could have been much less had the Higgs government approved nine other options their team presented to the province in the second half of 2022.
These included retention bonuses, bonuses for nurses who were close to retirement but chose to stay, premiums for nurses willing to move to units with critical shortages, payments for unused sick leave and flexibility on vacation scheduling for nurses lacking seniority.
All were rejected.
That left Vitalité no choice, Desrosiers said, but to ramp up the use of travel nurses at what she acknowledged was a huge cost.
"I can't tell you that a human life isn't worth what we paid," she said.

provide New Brunswickers with the care they need, 'at the right time and
in the right place, from the right provider," while offering a better
work-life balance for health professionals. (Ed Hunter/CBC)
The health authority's assistant CEO, Patrick Parent, told reporters later that the other options would have been less expensive and would have at least reduced the dependence on the expensive travel nurse contracts with private company Canadian Health Labs.
"It would have diminished the need greatly. Would that have mean that we'd have more options to go with different firms? Highly likely," he said.
"I'd like to believe, and the team would like to believe, that our options and flexibility would have increased dramatically if that had taken place."
Opposition MLAs said Vitalité's appearance shed new light on the origins of the contracts and it may be worth the committee holding more hearings or requesting documents.
"I don't think we're completely at the bottom of this yet," said Green MLA Megan Mitton.
Liberal MLA Keith Chiasson said he'd like to ask Beaulieu about the "green light" he apparently gave to travel nurses.
"New information is coming out. … For sure I'd like another kick at the can to ask him — to ask him why."
Former health minister Dororthy Shephard said near the end of the day's hearing that a judicial inquiry should be called, something the committee doesn't have the power to do.
The committee held a brief closed-door meeting afterward but the chair, Liberal MLA Chuck Chiasson, refused to say what it decided.
Premier Blaine Higgs has questioned the value of the contracts, and Health Minister Bruce Fitch has refused to express confidence in Desrosiers in the wake of the audit, saying that's up to the Vitalité board.

The CEO told reporters Thursday she felt like she'd been thrown under the bus by the government.
She reminded MLAs during her appearance that the lack of documented approval for the contracts — which Martin's report criticized — had its origins in Higgs's sweeping changes to health-care leadership in July 2022.
"Our premier appointed trustees to reduce the administrative burden and speed up decisions and eliminate obstacles quickly," she said.
Vitalité's largest contracts, costing a total of $98 million so far, were with Canadian Health Labs. The last of the three agreements remains in effect until February 2026.
Those agreements include so-called "bundled" teams of nurses at a cost of more than $18,000 per day, working out to approximately $306 per hour per nurse.
The company "practically had a monopoly," because it was the only agency that offered a guarantee it could get French-speaking nurses into place quickly, the CEO said.
That made it "almost impossible" to negotiate a better deal, she said.
Desrosiers
told the committee that Canadian Health Labs practically had a monopoly
as it was the only available company offering travel nurses who could
speak French. (New Brunswick Legislative Assembly)
Martin's audit criticized what he called an "auto-renewal" clause that allows the contract to extend past February 2026 if the company meets certain thresholds for bilingual nurses.
But Parent told the committee that Vitalité's interpretation of the clause is that it's at the health authority's discretion whether to renew the contract.
That issue, and a disagreement over whether Canadian Health Labs was billing fair market prices to the health authority for some expenses, are both the subject of a dispute resolution process between the company and the health authority, he said.
Vitalité board chair Tom Soucy said that process is why the health authority didn't want to hand over three internal audits of the contracts to Martin's office.
He said the health authority was willing to give Martin the audits if he promised not to make the information public, but the auditor general wouldn't provide that guarantee.

"Hey Higgy while you were meeting with the boyz a lady working for Dr. France.Desrosiers called me with private number in order to laugh and play dumb about my Health Care concerns EH?"
For the record Parent and Higgy know that Vitalité has threatened to sue me because I could not pay them with a credit card and my debit card did not suit them anymore. I told them please do but look out for the counterclaim because I want ALL the money I gave them BACK
In March of 2022 after calling Parent again a lady working for Dr. France Desrosiers called me with private number in order to laugh and play dumb about my Health Care concerns
When a Doctor working within Vitalité sent me a letter demanding to paid in advance before she would do anymore tests on me that she was requesting that took the cake. I sent he and the CEO the same email and I got a check in the mail from that doctor with explanation After that Higgy gave a Health Card and I switched to doctor working with Horizon However I still want ALL my money back from Desrosiers et al

But no, instead Higgs govt chose to give away precious tax-payer dollars, money that does not even circulate in our local economy, to a private company and in doing so demoralised our own local nurses, already working under strain.
"according to contracts obtained by The Globe, CHL billed regional health authorities in the two Atlantic provinces at rates of up to $300 an hour per nurse.
That is TWICE what other agencies charged and SIX TIMES what local nurses earn in the public system, according to the report.
It was also found that CHL (founded in 2020) was charging Atlantic hospitals for nurses'meals when in fact nurses never got free meals, ever.
CHL is gouging hospitals with impunity.
Now the union says paying the health care staff more money would have been a lower cost option. So which was it, overwhelmed, burning out, sick, or just crying wolf?

Free tuition in return for say a commitment to working in public

Walter Vrbetic
Reply to Walter Vrbetic
Not sure what tuition is, but let's say $10,000 per year, on a four year program = $40,000 per nurse...
$173m would be 4,325 new nurses.

Higgs doubles down, blames poor Vitalité management for costly travel nurse contracts
Premier issues statement in response to CEO's comments at public accounts committee Thursday
Premier Blaine Higgs is disputing claims by the CEO of Vitalité Health Network that costly travel nurse contracts were the result of a refusal by his government to approve other, less expensive options to deal with the staffing crisis in 2022.
Dr. France Desrosiers told a legislative committee Thursday that the $123 million in contracts were awarded due to pressure from the Higgs government to fix the health-care system quickly — and after nine other proposals, such as retention bonuses and premiums for working in short-staffed units, were rejected.
In a written statement issued Friday afternoon, Higgs said, it's "inaccurate" to say Vitalité's recommendations were less expensive or would have resolved issues more quickly.
"Vitalité was proposing long-term, permanent changes to how nurses are compensated, which ultimately would have cost taxpayers significantly more," he argued.
The options presented by Vitalité could not be unilaterally implemented by the government either, said Higgs. Any changes to compensation for nurses, such as pay and vacation days, must be negotiated with the New Brunswick Nurses Union. "As everyone knows, union negotiations take time."
While Higgs acknowledged there was an urgency to fill vacancies during the COVID-19 pandemic, "there was absolutely no direction by our government or by public servants for the CEO to sign long-term contracts," he said, noting the current contract doesn't expire until 2026, and it is set to automatically renew, without any end date.
"The CEO is seeking to blame non-partisan public servants for poor management decisions that she made," Higgs alleged.
"The real issue is that a very poor contract was signed," he said. "We continue to call on the board of Vitalité to find a legal way to end this contract."
CEO opts to 'take the high road'
In response, Desrosiers issued her own statement Friday, saying it's "very unfortunate that we are at this stage.
"To bring further transparency, the measures proposed were not intended to be permanent and amounted to $25M for the Network for each year they would be in place," she said.

"As for the approvals and the perspective on leadership, the Network will opt to take the high road and focus its efforts on providing care to its patients and communities."
Auditor general slams 'lack of accountability'
Auditor General Paul Martin also took issue Friday with comments made by Vitalité leadership during their public accounts committee appearance, following his scathing report earlier this month about travel nurse contracts and what he concluded was a lack of due diligence.
"To publicly call into question the work of the Office of the Auditor General adds to our concern regarding the lack of ownership and accountability displayed by Vitalité," Martin said in a statement.
"We encourage government to hold Vitalité accountable and trust our recommendations will be taken seriously and implemented in a timely fashion."
Auditor
General Paul Martin, who investigated the travel nurse contracts, urged
the government Friday to hold Vitalité accountable. (Jacques Poitras / CBC)
Martin found Vitalité's contracts with private nursing agencies, were "not reflective of best practices and did not demonstrate value for money."
What is "quite scary," he told MLAs, is that the current contract with Canadian Health Labs allows the company to deploy nurses "regardless of the actual need" and still be paid up to $85 million during the life of the agreement.
"As the independent arm of government charged with providing assurance and advice regarding the stewardship of public funds, we follow professional audit and quality assurance standards and ensure that appropriate evidence is obtained to support our findings and recommendations," Martin said Friday.
"Our team of experienced audit professionals performed extensive testing, analysis and review that led to reporting on Vitalité's failure to ensure appropriate contract management and oversight."

No retention bonus talk during wave of departures: deputy minister
Contracts have already cost taxpayers more than $174M
An “unprecedented” wave of worker departures in 2022 that led to the signing of controversial travel nursing contracts didn’t make the province consider paying retention bonuses to the remaining workforce because it believes that should be part of collective bargaining, Deputy Health Minister Eric Beaulieu said on Tuesday.
And despite the other Atlantic provinces giving nurses retention bonuses in recent years, New Brunswick has “struggled to get any real concrete information” from Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Prince Edward that shows they work.
In Fredericton on Tuesday, Beaulieu faced questions from a legislative committee in the wake of a damning report from auditor general Paul Martin about the travel nurse contracts, which have already cost taxpayers more than $174 million.
While he spent hours repeatedly saying that there’s not much the health department can do about the contracts because they were signed by the Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) Horizon and Vitalité, Beaulieu did offer insight into the government’s thinking about retention bonuses.
“The only thing I can really answer is that … any kind of retention bonus should be done at the bargaining table,” Beaulieu said in response to a question from Green MLA Megan Mitton.
His original answer – before Mitton interrupted him and asked him to specifically speak about retention bonuses – was to cite a long list of initiatives the government has undertaken to improve nursing numbers.
Contract talks between the province and the New Brunswick Nurses Union (NBNU), which has consistently called for the province to pay retention bonuses, are currently underway.
NBNU president Paula Doucet recently told Brunswick News that she repeatedly asked the province to follow the other Atlantic provinces’ lead on retention bonuses, but was told “there’s no money.”
Mitton was clearly unimpressed with Beaulieu’s answer, saying it didn’t answer her question about what happened in mid-to-late 2022, when the travel nurse contracts were being signed, and why retention bonuses weren’t “considered a possible solution when there was a desperate need, and when our neighbouring provinces were doing it.”
She added that Beaulieu’s response made it sound like “I’m not going to get an answer to that.”
Beaulieu also spent time extolling the province’s work to recruit more nurses, and the net workforce gains it’s made in recent years. Doucet told Brunswick News that using that metric is simply playing a numbers game, and that the number that really matters is vacancies within Horizon and Vitalité – some of which have risen in the last two years.
He also revealed he had a “very, very short conversation” with the CEO of Canadian Health Labs (CHL), which signed travel nurse contracts with Vitalité, and in other provinces. Beaulieu said he was attempting to negotiate some of the terms of the contracts, but was rebuffed.
Horizon Health Network
Horizon Health Network president and CEO Margaret Melanson also appeared before the committee on Tuesday afternoon. In mid-2022, she said, the network was facing an “unprecedented” wave of nurse exits and was struggling to get COVID-19 cases under control.
It all added up to “an untenable situation,” Melanson said, and after she briefed Beaulieu on the situation, Horizon signed its first travel nurse contracts; so far, they’ve cost taxpayers about $54 million.
Melanson said her meetings with Premier Blaine Higgs at that time were “very sporadic,” and she said he didn’t ask about travel nurse contracts, and she didn’t say anything about them.
She also said she couldn’t “speculate” about whether retention bonuses would have slowed the wave of departures, and that Horizon was told by the province that any discussions about bonuses would be settled in collective bargaining.
Unlike Vitalité, Horizon didn’t sign any contracts with CHL. Melanson said that’s because Horizon wasn’t interested in any long-term contracts, and wanted to have the flexibility to “engage and disengage” with travel nurses as quickly as possible.
The hourly rates being charged were another big point of focus, she said.
Other officials appearing before the committee this week include Jim Mehan, the deputy minister for the Department of Social Development, and Vitalité Health Network president and CEO Dr. France Desrosiers, who will appear with Vitalité board chair Tom Soucy.

Date: 20151223
Docket: T-1557-15
Fredericton, New Brunswick, December 23, 2015
PRESENT: The Honourable Mr. Justice Bell
BETWEEN:
DAVID RAYMOND AMOS
Plaintiff
and
HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Defendant
ORDER
(Delivered orally from the Bench in Fredericton, New Brunswick, on
December 14, 2015)
The Plaintiff seeks an appeal de novo, by way of motion pursuant to
the Federal Courts Rules (SOR/98-106), from an Order made on November
12, 2015, in which Prothonotary Morneau struck the Statement of Claim
in its entirety.
At the outset of the hearing, the Plaintiff brought to my attention a
letter dated September 10, 2004, which he sent to me, in my then
capacity as Past President of the New Brunswick Branch of the Canadian
Bar Association, and the then President of the Branch, Kathleen Quigg,
(now a Justice of the New Brunswick Court of Appeal). In that letter
he stated:
As for your past President, Mr. Bell, may I suggest that you check the
work of Frank McKenna before I sue your entire law firm including you.
You are your brother’s keeper.
Frank McKenna is the former Premier of New Brunswick and a former
colleague of mine at the law firm of McInnes Cooper. In addition to
expressing an intention to sue me, the Plaintiff refers to a number of
people in his Motion Record who he appears to contend may be witnesses
or potential parties to be added. Those individuals who are known to
me personally, include, but are not limited to the former Prime
Minister of Canada, The Right Honourable Stephen Harper; former
Attorney General of Canada and now a Justice of the Manitoba Court of
Queen’s Bench, Vic Toews; former member of Parliament Rob Moore;
former Director of Policing Services, the late Grant Garneau; former
Chief of the Fredericton Police Force, Barry McKnight; former Staff
Sergeant Danny Copp; my former colleagues on the New Brunswick Court
of Appeal, Justices Bradley V. Green and Kathleen Quigg, and, retired
Assistant Commissioner Wayne Lang of the Royal Canadian Mounted
Police.
In the circumstances, given the threat in 2004 to sue me in my
personal capacity and my past and present relationship with many
potential witnesses and/or potential parties to the litigation, I am
of the view there would be a reasonable apprehension of bias should I
hear this motion. See Justice de Grandpré’s dissenting judgment in
Committee for Justice and Liberty et al v National Energy Board et al,
[1978] 1 SCR 369 at p 394 for the applicable test regarding
allegations of bias. In the circumstances, although neither party has
requested I recuse myself, I consider it appropriate that I do so.
AS A RESULT OF MY RECUSAL, THIS COURT ORDERS that the Administrator of
the Court schedule another date for the hearing of the motion. There
is no order as to costs.
“B. Richard Bell”
Judge

already) you will find the text of just two of many emails I had sent

Dear Mr. Amos,
Thank you for your follow up e-mail to me today. I was on days off

was not ignoring or procrastinating to respond to your concerns.
As your attachment sent today refers from Premier Graham, our position
is clear on your dead calf issue: Our forensic labs do not process
testing on animals in cases such as yours, they are referred to the
Atlantic Veterinary College in Charlottetown who can provide these
services. If you do not choose to utilize their expertise in this

As for your other concerns regarding the US Government, false
imprisonment and Federal Court Dates in the US, etc... it is clear
that Federal authorities are aware of your concerns both in Canada
the US. These issues do not fall into the purvue of Detachment

Integrity commissioner calls for tougher conflict-of-interest law
N.B. legislation should apply to apparent conflicts, not just actual
ones, Alexandre Deschênes says
By Jacques Poitras, CBC News Posted: Jun 12, 2017 6:30 AM AT
Alexandre Deschênes's first act as commissioner was to deal with
Victor Boudreau's 20 per cent investment in Shediac Campground Ltd., a
proposed 700-site facility that has generated local opposition.
(Jacques Poitras/CBC)
New Brunswick's integrity commissioner says the conflict-of-interest
law for politicians should be toughened to clarify cases such as
cabinet minister Victor Boudreau's former investment in a proposed
campground near Parlee Beach.
Alexandre Deschênes said earlier this year that Boudreau's stake in
the project did not put him in a conflict of interest but that the
appearance of a conflict was "inevitable."
Unlike other conflict-of-interest laws, "our act does not apply to an
apparent conflict of interest," he said in an interview with CBC News.
"It's not in there."
Previous commissioners suggested law
Boudreau recused himself from Parlee Beach issues anyway, even though
he didn't technically have to. The law said ministers aren't in a
conflict if decisions that affect their private interests also apply
to the general public.

group says
"Mr. Boudreau could have gone on and said, 'I'm the minister of health
and I'm going to make decisions that apply to the general public and
the act allows it,'" Deschênes said.
"If you'd had the words 'apparent conflict of interest' [in the law]
it would have been clear."
Deschênes pointed out two of his predecessors as conflict-of-interest
commissioner, Pat Ryan and Stuart Stratton, recommended expanding the
act to include the appearance of conflicts.
"It started out way back," he said. "We're looking at almost a decade
here where the suggestion has been made that apparent conflict of
interest ought to be included in the act. It's not been done.
"But as a commissioner, I will be following what they've been doing
and I will be recommending it when I file a report."
Updated conflict act
The Gallant Liberals passed amendments to update the Members Conflict
of Interest Act during the spring session of the legislature, but they
did not include a ban on perceived conflicts.
Progressive Conservative MLA Brian MacDonald has also called for the
Liberals to fix what he calls "a gap in the law."

Cabinet minister Victor Boudreau recused himself from the Parlee Beach
issues anyway, even though the law said ministers aren't in a conflict
if decisions that affect their private interests also apply to the
general public. (CBC)
Deschênes's first act as commissioner was to deal with Boudreau's 20
per cent investment in Shediac Campground Ltd., a proposed 700-site
facility that has generated local opposition.
As health minister, Boudreau oversees the public health offices, and
his department was part of a working group looking at how to deal with
fecal contamination at Parlee Beach. One option the group looked at
was a moratorium on new development near the beach.
That would have affected the proposed campground.
'I told him, and he made it public, that the appearance of
conflict in this case was absolutely inevitable. He couldn't get
around it. It was there.'
- Alexandre Deschênes
The law bans ministers from making decisions that affect their
"private interest," but it makes an exception if the decision applies
to the broader public, even if the minister would still benefit.
Deschênes said in his letter to Boudreau in March that "one could
argue" a decision on a moratorium would affect the broader public.
"Under the act, he might have been entitled to continue to have
discussions that applied to the general population, even though he was
part of [the project] at that point," Deschênes said in an interview
last week.
"I told him, and he made it public, that the appearance of conflict in
this case was absolutely inevitable. He couldn't get around it. It was
there."
An MP's perceived conflict matters
The federal conflict of interest code for MPs also includes an
exception for decisions that affect the general public, but it
includes an explicit reference to perceived conflicts.
Boudreau put his investment in a blind trust in 2014, which meant he
had no role in the running of the business. But the value of his stake
would have been affected by a moratorium on future development.
Parlee beach
In May, Victor Boudreau announced he was giving up his investment in
the campground on Parlee Beach altogether.
He said in March he learned of the potential moratorium Feb. 28 and
met with Deschênes March 2, the first date they could arrange it.
"That perception is the issue," Boudreau said at the time. "And if the
perception is the issue, and the perception is what's going to be
prevent us from getting to the bottom of it, then I'm prepared to
recuse myself from all activities relating to this committee."
Last month he announced that he was giving up his investment in the
campground altogether.
Deschênes said he believes most ministers and MLAs would do the same
thing if he told them there was an apparent, but not actual, conflict.
"In most cases I think they will listen and they will do what has to
be done to put an end to an apparent conflict of interest, although
technically they could continue to do what they want to do."

Boudreau should recuse himself from anything government. How he got
elected after the Atcon scandal is beyond belief. He personally signed
off on removing the province's security in loan guarantees costing
taxpayers more than $70 million. Why? We will never know:

Last month Boudreau announced that he was giving up his investment in

Past two days Parlee Beach had "No Swimming Advisory" and today as
well. I wonder if Boudreau would have gave up his investment under the
old water advisory system that he defended...Victor Boudreau dismisses
call for Parlee Beach sign improvements. The health minister said
people can "use their own judgement" on whether they want to go into
the water.

@William Roberts I tried the water of the political sewer once in 2006
while intervening in the NEB Emera Pipeline hearing and I got all of
44 votes in Saint John Harbour. Trust that I was not surprised. I
learned something long ago when my Father and his PC friends were
disgusted that the lawyer Trudeau "The Elder" was having fun falsely
claiming he said "Fuddle Duddle" on the Hill. In a nutshell it is that
nobody gives a damn just as long as our politicians appear to be cool
dudes. Nothing has changed since.

The selection of Dr. Louis Lapierre, recipient of the Order of Canada
whose Medal was revoked because because of his recognized lack of
needed competence which he falsified is a documented example of how
strong this influence and consequences of this mis-guided forest
management has destroyed the Fish and Wildlife habitat and populations
in New Brunswick. This design of forest management supported by
industry, impacts negatively on our Grand Children's heritage, forcing
them to leave their native province because of lack of work.

The Gallant government has introduced legislation to merge several
legislative watchdog positions into a single job and has chosen a
retired judge to take on the newly expanded role.
Alexandre Deschênes
Alexandre Deschênes, a retired New Brunswick Court of Appeal justice,
is to be the first integrity commissioner in New Brunswick.
Retired New Brunswick Court of Appeal justice Alexandre Deschênes will
become the province's first integrity commissioner, an appointment
supported by the opposition Progressive Conservatives and Green Party
Leader David Coon.
Premier Brian Gallant introduced a bill Wednesday to create the position.
For now, Deschênes fills the vacant position of conflict-of-interest
commissioner and will also oversee legislation governing the privacy
of personal health records.
Next July, Deschênes will add responsibility for the lobbyist registry
to his duties.
The Liberals say they will proclaim legislation to set up the registry
by next July. The law was passed by the previous PC government in 2014
but not enacted.
Conflict of interest commissioner, MLAs have conflicting views on
transparency
Commissioner wants mandatory privacy breach reporting
N.B. legislature will study cutting independent watchdogs
And next September, after Anne Bertrand, the information and privacy
commissioner, finishes her seven-year term, that job will become part
of Deschênes's job as integrity commissioner.
An independent study, done as part of the government's program
review, recommended the merging of the legislative officer positions.
All parties in the legislature agreed on two other appointments
Wednesday: lawyer Michèle Pelletier as consumer advocate for insurance

Brunswick and the President of the Law Society of New Brunswick, will
consider candidates for the next Queen’s Counsel appointments.

Judge-moving bill aims to help Dominic LeBlanc, Tory MLA charges
Kirk MacDonald says Liberals drafted bill to help put Jolène Richard
and André Richard on court
By Jacques Poitras, CBC News Posted: Nov 24, 2016 6:03 PM AT
A Progressive Conservative MLA has taken the unusual step of naming
names — including that of a sitting provincial court judge — in his
attack on a proposed law on how Court of Queen's Bench judges are
transferred.
Kirk MacDonald told the legislature last week that he believes the
government bill was drafted to help the spouse and the brother-in-law
of federal Liberal MP Dominic LeBlanc, a close ally of Premier Brian
Gallant.
nb-andre-richard-jolene-
A Progressive Conservative MLA believes the Liberal government's
judge-moving bill was drafted to help have André Richard and Jolène
Richard appointed to the Court of Queen's Bench. (CBC)
"I will give you two names. I will give you Jolène Richard and André
Richard, two people I believe are looking for judicial appointments
here in New Brunswick," MacDonald said during second-reading debate on
the bill.
In fact, Jolène Richard is already a provincial court judge. André
Richard is her brother and a senior lawyer at Stewart McKelvey.
Province names new judge, wife of MP Dominic LeBlanc
"Dominic LeBlanc has some judges that he wants to appoint in New
Brunswick, and the framework as it currently exists does not allow for
that to happen," MacDonald said.
André Richard stated Thursday he "had no involvement in the
government's decision to propose changes to the Judicature Act."
"As you know, my sister is already a judge who sits in Moncton. I fail
to understand why our names are being brought into this debate."
Bill gives veto to minister
The Liberal bill would amend the Judicature Act, which governs how
courts operate, to give the justice minister a veto over Chief Justice
David Smith of the Court of Queen's Bench transferring judges from one
court to another.
nb-chief-justice-david-smith
Court of Queen's Bench Chief Justice David Smith has transferred 13
judges since becoming chief justice in 1998. (Acadia University)
PC MLAs have hinted in the past about who they believe the bill was
designed to help. But until now, no one was willing to name them.
It's rare for politicians to draw sitting judges into partisan
debates, and the veteran Tory MLA did not offer any evidence to back
up his allegations. He turned down a request to explain his views in
an interview.
Parliamentary privilege
Parliamentary privilege protects members of the legislature from being
sued for defamation or held in contempt of court for comments they
make during proceedings. No such protection exists for things they say
outside the legislature.
Provincial court judges such as Richard are appointed by the province,
but Court of Queen's Bench justices are named by Ottawa. Both courts
are administered by the province, but the current law gives Smith the
power to move judges on his court on his own.
Smith has argued the bill would threaten the independence of the
courts, which could make it unconstitutional.
Bill brought back
The Liberals introduced the bill during the last session, but it
didn't pass before the session ended. They brought it back last week.
Justice Minister Denis Landry said last week the bill was designed to
bring "best practices" to court administration and end the pattern of
justices being named to smaller courthouses and then being transferred
soon after.
Judge-moving legislation introduced again
2 chief justices appear at odds over judge-moving bill
7 things list reveals about controversial judge-moving bill
"This is what we want to correct," he said. "If we name a judge, they
should reside there, for a long period of time, not just two or three
months then move them where they want to go."
Asked whether he'd veto such a transfer, Landry said, "This is what we'll
see."
Landry's department said Thursday it would not comment on MacDonald's
accusation.
Larger locations favoured
MacDonald said during last week's debate that it's true Court of
Queen's Bench justices are often appointed to smaller locations and
are then moved to one of the three largest cities.
Dominic LeBlanc
Federal Fisheries Minister Dominic LeBlanc is a close ally of New
Brunswick Premier Brian Gallant. (CBC)
He said that court postings in Moncton, Fredericton, and Saint John
are "The positions that everyone seems to want."
And he said the current system for moving judges, "which is controlled
by the chief justice, does not work for Dominic LeBlanc and the
Liberal Party of New Brunswick," MacDonald said.
Upside to judge-moving bill touted by ex-constitutional lawyer
Gallant government's judge-moving bill questioned by legal expert
"They want to change it. They want to have a situation where they have
a mechanism to control that decision and to effect change on that
decision."
In June, Smith transferred Justice Tracey DeWare from Woodstock to
Moncton and Justice Richard Petrie from Saint John to Woodstock.
DeWare was moved to fill a vacancy after Justice Brigitte Robichaud
switched to supernumerary, or part-time, status.
Jolène Richard did not respond to interview requests.

Little David Amos’ “True History Of War” Canadian Airstrikes And
Stupid Justin Trudeau
Canada’s and Canadians free ride is over. Canada can no longer hide
behind Amerka’s and NATO’s skirts.
When I was still in Canadian Forces then Prime Minister Jean Chretien
actually committed the Canadian Army to deploy in the second campaign
in Iraq, the Coalition of the Willing. This was against or contrary to
the wisdom or advice of those of us Canadian officers that were
involved in the initial planning phases of that operation. There were
significant concern in our planning cell, and NDHQ about of the dearth
of concern for operational guidance, direction, and forces for
operations after the initial occupation of Iraq. At the “last minute”
Prime Minister Chretien and the Liberal government changed its mind.
The Canadian government told our amerkan cousins that we would not
deploy combat troops for the Iraq campaign, but would deploy a
Canadian Battle Group to Afghanistan, enabling our amerkan cousins to
redeploy troops from there to Iraq. The PMO’s thinking that it was
less costly to deploy Canadian Forces to Afghanistan than Iraq. But
alas no one seems to remind the Liberals of Prime Minister Chretien’s
then grossly incorrect assumption. Notwithstanding Jean Chretien’s
incompetence and stupidity, the Canadian Army was heroic,
professional, punched well above it’s weight, and the PPCLI Battle
Group, is credited with “saving Afghanistan” during the Panjway
campaign of 2006.
What Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don’t tell you now, is that then
Liberal Prime Minister Jean Chretien committed, and deployed the
Canadian army to Canada’s longest “war” without the advice, consent,
support, or vote of the Canadian Parliament.
What David Amos and the rest of the ignorant, uneducated, and babbling
chattering classes are too addled to understand is the deployment of
less than 75 special operations troops, and what is known by planners
as a “six pac cell” of fighter aircraft is NOT the same as a
deployment of a Battle Group, nor a “war” make.
The Canadian Government or The Crown unlike our amerkan cousins have
the “constitutional authority” to commit the Canadian nation to war.
That has been recently clearly articulated to the Canadian public by
constitutional scholar Phillippe Legasse. What Parliament can do is
remove “confidence” in The Crown’s Government in a “vote of
non-confidence.” That could not happen to the Chretien Government
regarding deployment to Afghanistan, and it won’t happen in this
instance with the conservative majority in The Commons regarding a
limited Canadian deployment to the Middle East.
President George Bush was quite correct after 911 and the terror
attacks in New York; that the Taliban “occupied” and “failed state”
Afghanistan was the source of logistical support, command and control,
and training for the Al Quaeda war of terror against the world. The
initial defeat, and removal from control of Afghanistan was vital and
essential for the security and tranquility of the developed world. An
ISIS “caliphate,” in the Middle East, no matter how small, is a clear
and present danger to the entire world. This “occupied state,”
or“failed state” will prosecute an unending Islamic inspired war of
terror against not only the “western world,” but Arab states
“moderate” or not, as well. The security, safety, and tranquility of
Canada and Canadians are just at risk now with the emergence of an
ISIS“caliphate” no matter how large or small, as it was with the
Taliban and Al Quaeda “marriage” in Afghanistan.
One of the everlasting “legacies” of the “Trudeau the Elder’s dynasty
was Canada and successive Liberal governments cowering behind the
amerkan’s nuclear and conventional military shield, at the same time
denigrating, insulting them, opposing them, and at the same time
self-aggrandizing ourselves as “peace keepers,” and progenitors of
“world peace.” Canada failed. The United States of Amerka, NATO, the
G7 and or G20 will no longer permit that sort of sanctimonious
behavior from Canada or its government any longer. And Prime Minister
Stephen Harper, Foreign Minister John Baird , and Cabinet are fully
cognizant of that reality. Even if some editorial boards, and pundits
are not.
Justin, Trudeau “the younger” is reprising the time “honoured” liberal
mantra, and tradition of expecting the amerkans or the rest of the
world to do “the heavy lifting.” Justin Trudeau and his “butt buddy”
David Amos are telling Canadians that we can guarantee our security
and safety by expecting other nations to fight for us. That Canada can
and should attempt to guarantee Canadians safety by providing
“humanitarian aid” somewhere, and call a sitting US president a “war
criminal.” This morning Australia announced they too, were sending
tactical aircraft to eliminate the menace of an ISIS “caliphate.”
In one sense Prime Minister Harper is every bit the scoundrel Trudeau
“the elder” and Jean ‘the crook” Chretien was. Just As Trudeau, and
successive Liberal governments delighted in diminishing,
marginalizing, under funding Canadian Forces, and sending Canadian
military men and women to die with inadequate kit and modern
equipment; so too is Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Canada’s F-18s are
antiquated, poorly equipped, and ought to have been replaced five
years ago. But alas, there won’t be single RCAF fighter jock that
won’t go, or won’t want to go, to make Canada safe or safer.
My Grandfather served this country. My father served this country. My
Uncle served this country. And I have served this country. Justin
Trudeau has not served Canada in any way. Thomas Mulcair has not
served this country in any way. Liberals and so called social
democrats haven’t served this country in any way. David Amos, and
other drooling fools have not served this great nation in any way. Yet
these fools are more than prepared to ensure their, our safety to
other nations, and then criticize them for doing so.
Canada must again, now, “do our bit” to guarantee our own security,
and tranquility, but also that of the world. Canada has never before
shirked its responsibility to its citizens and that of the world.
Prime Minister Harper will not permit this country to do so now

I talked to Don Newman earlier this week before the beancounters David
Dodge and Don Drummond now of Queen's gave their spin about Canada's
Health Care system yesterday and Sheila Fraser yapped on and on on
CAPAC during her last days in office as if she were oh so ethical.. To
be fair to him I just called Greg Weston (613-288-6938) I suggested
that he should at least Google SOUCOM and David Amos It would be wise
if he check ALL of CBC's sources before he publishes something else
about the DND EH Don Newman? Lets just say that the fact that your
old CBC buddy, Tony Burman is now in charge of Al Jazeera English
never impressed me. The fact that he set up a Canadian office is
interesting though

"But Lang, defence minister McCallum's chief of staff, says military
brass were not entirely forthcoming on the issue. For instance, he
says, even McCallum initially didn't know those soldiers were helping
to plan the invasion of Iraq up to the highest levels of command,
including a Canadian general.
That general is Walt Natynczyk, now Canada's chief of defence staff,
who eight months after the invasion became deputy commander of 35,000
U.S. soldiers and other allied forces in Iraq. Lang says Natynczyk was
also part of the team of mainly senior U.S. military brass that helped
prepare for the invasion from a mobile command in Kuwait."
http://baconfat53.blogspot.
"I remember years ago when the debate was on in Canada, about there
being weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Our American 'friends"
demanded that Canada join into "the Coalition of the Willing. American
"veterans" and sportscasters loudly denounced Canada for NOT buying
into the US policy.
At the time I was serving as a planner at NDHQ and with 24 other of my
colleagues we went to Tampa SOUCOM HQ to be involved in the planning
in the planning stages of the op....and to report to NDHQ, that would
report to the PMO upon the merits of the proposed operation. There was
never at anytime an existing target list of verified sites where there
were deployed WMD.
Coalition assets were more than sufficient for the initial strike and
invasion phase but even at that point in the planning, we were
concerned about the number of "boots on the ground" for the occupation
(and end game) stage of an operation in Iraq. We were also concerned
about the American plans for occupation plans of Iraq because they at
that stage included no contingency for a handing over of civil
authority to a vetted Iraqi government and bureaucracy.
There was no detailed plan for Iraq being "liberated" and returned to
its people...nor a thought to an eventual exit plan. This was contrary
to the lessons of Vietnam but also to current military thought, that
folks like Colin Powell and "Stuffy" Leighton and others elucidated
upon. "What's the mission" how long is the mission, what conditions
are to met before US troop can redeploy? Prime Minister Jean Chretien
and the PMO were even at the very preliminary planning stages wary of
Canadian involvement in an Iraq operation....History would prove them
correct. The political pressure being applied on the PMO from the
George W Bush administration was onerous
American military assets were extremely overstretched, and Canadian
military assets even more so It was proposed by the PMO that Canadian
naval platforms would deploy to assist in naval quarantine operations
in the Gulf and that Canadian army assets would deploy in Afghanistan
thus permitting US army assets to redeploy for an Iraqi
operation....The PMO thought that "compromise would save Canadian
lives and liberal political capital.. and the priority of which
....not necessarily in that order. "
You can bet that I called these sneaky Yankees again today EH John
Adams? of the CSE within the DND?

> Look at the next few emails, please.

> It was Sally Brooks who wanted me to meet with her and Charles LeBlanc
> at the coffee shop last week and I told Sally I did not trust him.

> Murray and the common denomination we have in common: "police abuse".

> Please read the next few emails and see what you think. Then on

>
> 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

> specific public policies. This populism was represented most
> significantly in the inversion of the political hierarcy: For COR

> 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

> 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

> The Formation of the COR Party
>
> The McKenna Liberals completely dominated New Brunswick politics from
> 1987 to 1989, and New Brunswick was effectively a one-party province
> during that time. Yet the COR Party rose much faster, less than two

> hardship over the last 25 years. The Progressive Conservative Party
> was wiped out in 1987 as a repudiation of Richard Hatfield, whose

> COR-NB was also a response to the McKenna government's desire to
> increase bilingualism in the civil service, an effort which the
> government has since admitted it has not succeeded in achieving.
> Finally, for many activists and voters, federal and provincial
> politics are not separate, and one reason for the rise of the COR-NB

> handicap for the provincial PC Party.
>
> A neglected aspect of the rise of COR-NB was its genesis as a social

> (ESA). The ESA was formed in the early 1980s to oppose the extension

> bringing the same concerns, getting the same answers, and really not
> getting anywhere," said Arch Pafford, COR-NB's first president, first
> leader, and an ESA activist.4

> The ESA was a single-issue social movement and the COR Party inherited

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

> By 1994 the party consistently polled between 3-7% of decided voters

> party and Official Opposition in the existing system. In contrast to

> 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

> Québec election, did not excite widespread public attention. The

> 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

> 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).
>

Impatient Blaine Higgs drops health minister, Horizon CEO
Bruce Fitch becomes health minister, Dorothy Shephard moves to Social Development
Death in N.B ER waiting room highlights health-care crisis, premier says
Premier Blaine Higgs dropped his health minister Friday and fired the CEO of one of two New Brunswick health networks after worsening news on the health-care front that included a "traumatizing" death in an emergency department's waiting room.
Bruce Fitch is now health minister, switching places with Dorothy Shephard, who moves from Health to Social Development, Higgs announced, during a Friday afternoon news conference.
Higgs also announced Horizon Health Network CEO John Dornan was fired from his role, and replaced on an interim basis by Margaret Melanson, the network's vice-president clinical services.
In addition, Higgs said he revoked the boards of both Horizon and Vitalité health networks and installed in their place a trustee for each.

"We have a plan," Higgs said. "It needs to be implemented. The situation we're in today is the result of many, many years of successive governments refusing to deal with urgent situations."
The shakeup of New Brunswick's health-care leadership comes after a patient died in the waiting room of the Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital's emergency department early Tuesday morning while waiting for care.
Witness John Staples said the man, a senior, had been waiting alone in a wheelchair, in visible discomfort for hours when he appeared to fall asleep. It was only during a routine check of people in the waiting room that a hospital employee realized the man had stopped breathing, he said.
Investigation ordered into death
Higgs said he was "appalled" when he heard a patient died while waiting to be seen in an emergency department.
He said he's asked Horizon Health Network to undertake an investigation into what happened, and that if he's not satisfied with the results, will ask for an external review.

this week was traumatizing for the ER, the family and people who
witnessed it. (Pat Richard/CBC)
"I have no doubt that every New Brunswicker is saddened and concerned by this story. We all want to know that if we go to the hospital we will receive help we need."
Answering questions from reporters, Higgs said his hope is the investigation uncovers whether any standards for care at the hospital were not being met when the patient died in the waiting room.
However, he was quick to note he doesn't believe fault lies with frontline health-care workers.
"I don't believe this has anything to do with — and I'm just stating an opinion here — anything to do with the nurses on shift or the people on shift.
"I believe it's a management issue. I believe there's no co-ordination of activity and that's what I'm trying to drive home here. If we don't get better management results in our hospitals, we won't get better health care."
Switching ministers
Higgs praised Shephard's work during the pandemic, and for her role in putting forward a new health-care plan for the province.
However, he said, Fitch would take a "fresh look" at how the department measures performance and where the shortcomings lie in health care.

social development, while Bruce Fitch was moved from social development
to the role of health minister. (CBC)
"In the case of Bruce joining, sometimes a change is, some may say, better than a rest," Higgs said.
"Bruce is a seasoned individual within the government … he'll work with people anywhere, as Dorothy was, but bringing in a fresh look at, OK, how do we measure performance? How do we deliver on results? Where have we not provided and followed through on commitments made and what were the root causes of that?"
Revoking health authority boards
In place of the boards of directors for the two health authorities, Higgs said his government has appointed trustees Suzanne Johnston and Gerald Richard for Horizon and Vitalité, respectively.
"We are fortunate to have two outstanding and experienced individuals to come out of retirement to help guide us through these challenging times.
The boards of the health networks include members elected by the public and members appointed by government.
Higgs said the two boards were revoked to make quicker changes at the two health authorities.
"We're taking a crisis management approach here to allow decisions to be made, to allow direct consultation with appropriate people and get on with it.
"So we're removing this situation of a bureaucratic stalemate … and this isn't intended to be permanent but this is intended to get results. And right now I need to see results, and I want to remove the barriers and roadblocks for our health professionals to achieve them."
Higgs said he didn't have a timeline for when he expects results from the two trustees and was vague on what their targets were.
"There's going to be some targets we'll be setting out there that we want to achieve first. So I can't put a timeline on it but I do want to be clear on what the outcomes need to be."
'Major step backwards,' says ousted Horizon chair
Higgs's announcement was met with swift criticism from Jeff McAloon, the Horizon board chair until Friday.
"I am disappointed and disheartened by Premier Higgs's unilateral decision to remove Dr. John Dornan as CEO of Horizon Health Network," McAloon said in an email statement.
"I believe in Dr. Dornan's experience and ability to affect real and positive change in the provincial health system."
During the news conference, Higgs sidestepped a question about what it was Dornan failed to do in his role as CEO.
"I think what I'm demonstrating here is a need to get a groundswell in relation to frontline workers in the case of Margaret Melanson and her role in clinical services and you know, how we can direct that in the hospitals," he said.
"I think in every hospital there needs to be a manager of clinical services that is really that gatekeeper of who is coming in? Who is going out? What's the time in? How quickly are we managing that? And we need to get on the ground with that.
Dr. John Dornan was fired as CEO of Horizon Health Network after being
officially named to the position only four months ago. (Jacques
Poitras/CBC)
McAloon characterized Higgs's move as a centralization of health-care control.
"To me, and to the partially elected, local board I led, today's announcement is a major step backward," he said.
"It represents the loss of community ownership and engagement and clinical, leadership expertise.
"Centralizing control within the Premier's Office is not the answer. Politics is what got us here and is not the solution."
McAloon said he had not heard from Higgs and only learned of his decision moments before the news conference began.
"I join with all New Brunswickers in their feelings of shock and want nothing more than to see our system stabilized."
Johanne Lise Landry, spokesperson for Vitalité Health Network, said in an email that the health network did not receive any correspondence about its board being revoked.
There was also reaction from the medical community itself.
"Firing Dr. John Dornan would have to rank as one of the ill-advised, mindless and ill-considered decisions I have ever heard," tweeted cardiologist Dr. Robert Teskey.
Opposition reaction
Interim Liberal Leader Roger Melanson wondered why it's taking so long for Higgs to do something about problems in the health–care system.
He said the premier has been in office for four years, and he needs to explain to New Brunswickers what his new plan is and why he thinks it will work.
But Melanson is concerned that attracting new doctors won't be high on the agenda for the province.
"We need health-care workers to be able to deliver these services, and they still have not even mentioned that today in this press conference," said Melanson.
Green Party health critic Megan Mitton said successive governments of Liberal and PC stripes have contributed to the state of the province's health-care system.
She's concerned about the abandonment of partially elected health boards, a move she said goes against democracy.
"We should not be seeing more centralization of our health-care system," said Mitton. "We should be going in the other direction and having more decision-making and power and resources at the local level."
Melanson said he would like to see the legislature recalled to deal with this issue, something Mitton said she would support.

University New Brunswick Class Action
Overview
Valent Legal has commenced a class action lawsuit against the
University of New Brunswick and Dr. Manoj Bhargava on behalf of a
group of students who accessed mental health services through the UNB
Student Health Centre and allege to have been subjected to sexual
assault perpetrated by Dr. Bhargava.
The Class Action alleges the University of New Brunswick, and its
employees, were negligent by failing to properly protect the students
accessing their health care services. The Class Action further alleges
Dr. Bhargava was medically negligent by subjecting the student class
members to sexual assault.
Valent Legal is working on this Class Action in collaboration with New
Brunswick law firm, Moss Hachey Law. To speak with a representative
from Moss Hachey Law, please contact Erika Baker at 506-449-7544.

"Referring complaints to police
Schollenberg said the college involved the police recently, after
suspending Bhargava.
"It became apparent that there may be more to this," he said.
He said the college asked some of the 18 complainants if they were
interested in speaking to the police and passed on their information
to the Fredericton Police Force if they said yes.
Fredericton psychiatrist suspended by College of Physicians and Surgeons
Alycia Bartlette, spokesperson for the Fredericton Police Force, would
not confirm whether the police are investigating Bhargava.
"In general, we would not confirm whether a specific individual was
the subject of a police investigation until such time as charges are
laid in court, or there are operational reasons otherwise," she said
in an email."

>>>
>>> Burke, the Liberal MLA for Fredericton-Fort Nashwaaksis, wouldn't

>>> "The RCMP has provided security to me recently by accompanying me to a

>>>
>>> The RCMP provides protection to the premier and MLAs with its VIP

>>>
>>> Burke didn't say when the threat was made but it's believed to have

>>>
>>> "When a threat is posed to you and it is a credible threat, you have

>>>
>>> Burke said he doesn't feel any differently and he has not changed his

>>>
>>> "It doesn't bother me one bit," he said. "It makes my wife

>>>
>>> Burke served in an elite American military unit before becoming a

>>>
>>> "(I) have taken my own precautions and what I have to do to ensure my

>>> to my background and training.
>>>
>>> "I am comfortable with defending myself or my family if it ever had to

>>>
>>> Burke said it is not uncommon for politicians to have security concerns.
>>>
>>> "We do live unfortunately in an age and in a society now where threats

>>>
>>> Since the terrorism attacks in the United States on Sept. 11, 2001,
>>> security in New Brunswick has been

>>>
>>> Metal detectors were recently installed in the legislature and all

>>>
>>> The position of attorney general is often referred to as the

>>>
>>> Burke said sometimes people do not differentiate between his role as
>>> the manager of the justice system and the individual who actually
>>> prosecutes them.
>>>
>>> "With the job sometimes comes threats," he said. "I have had
>>> numerous
>>> threats since Day 1 in office."
>>>
>>> Burke said he hopes his First Nations heritage has nothing to do with

>>>
>>> "I think it is more of an issue where people get fixated on a matter

>>> Is the threat from someone who was recently incarcerated?
>>>
>>> "I probably shouldn't answer that," he replied.

these criticisms have been there for some time.

until a verified patient contacts them with an official complaint.

I suspect it would probably take more than one 'official complaint'.
But I was more referring to CBC and other media that can certainly
