You may remember when Blaine Higgs, Conservative Premier in New Brunswick, spent a ton of money buying Teslas for all his Cabinet members.

Susan Holt, the new Liberal Premier of New Brunswick is looking to sell off the government-owned Teslas.

"The automaker’s image in Canada has nose-dived because of Musk’s closeness to Trump, who imposed tariffs on Canadian goods and threatened to turn our country into the U.S.’s “51st state.”

RSV vaccines are only available "For individuals 60 years of age or older living in a long-term care setting" in New Brunswick. Meanwhile RSV infections are through the roof. Yup, let's keep everyone sick.

Met a neighbour who was sick a few months back and thought it was #LongCovid but turns out it was #glyphosate poisoning. He had to go to the USA to get tested as our doctors don’t even know how to look for it and we are in a danger zone here in New Brunswick.

From what I am seeing in our local public spaces, less than 1% of people will heed the advice of the Chief Medical Officer of Health. Looks like 2025 will come in with whoop!

New Brunswick has a website to book vaccinations, routine and periodic. e.g. you should get Tdap every ten years (not that they tell you this on the website)

"The union representing Canada Post workers got the cold shoulder from the new Liberal government of Premier Susan Holt when they repeatedly offered to deliver social assistance cheques during the ongoing strike, according to a local union official ... “We sent multiple emails to the Minister [of Social Development] to try to say that this is deplorable, that you’re making these people go pick up their cheques while we volunteered to go deliver them."

Currently we cannot get either #Covid or #influenza vaccinations in our community. Pharmacies say it's a lack of staff to administer vaccines. They have no idea when vaccinations will be available. So much for #PublicHealth #NBPoli #StillMasking

Striking #CanadaPost workers have offered to continue socio-economic cheque delivery (i.e. pensions, social assistance payments etc.) during their current strike.

The provincial governments in #NovaScotia, #PrinceEdwardIsland, #NewBrunswick and #NewfoundlandLabrador have REFUSED to take #CUPW up on its offer!

'Holt said Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has confirmed the $5 million previously offered to the province to study the neurodegenerative illness, which causes symptoms ranging from painful muscle spasms to memory loss and behavioural changes, is "still on the table," along with the support of the Public Health Agency of Canada.'

I passed by a lovely church on my ride yesterday. The photos show the new church and the lane to the cemetery behind it. The monument beside the small church shows a sketch of the original larger church and is inscribed Saint Timothy Church, built 1903, moved 1917, burnt 2021. It was arson, sadly, in a rural area that has issues with drug smugglers.

Saskatchewan's conservative premier Scott Moe lost 13 seats last night. He could lose more.
The two largest cities, Regina and Saskatoon, voted solidly against him.

NDP won Manitoba
NDP won British Columbia
Liberals won New Brunswick

All since #Conservative leader Pierre #Poilievre began his country-wide 'Canada is broken -- only PP can fix it' campaign.

Feels like #Canada's not buying what Pierre is selling.
