UPDATE: Limited City-wide garbage collection services have resumed https://saintjohn.ca/en/news-and-notices/update-limited-city-wide-garbage-collection-services-have-resumed #sosj #saintjohn #newbrunswick #canada #nbnews #sjnews
#nbpoli Opinion:
Should #NewBrunswick Premier #BlaineHiggs call an #election, it's going to be incredibly hard for him not to secure another majority government.
He's riding a massive surplus that he can use to target middle-income swing voters through targeted tax cuts and he can keep the rest of his base in line and away from the harder-right allure of the People's Alliance through his anti-LGBTQ+ fervour.
There's really only two things that could sink him into minority or opposition status:
- He goes a little too heavy into the anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and scares off enough centrist #ProgressiveConservative voters.
- His opposition (specifically #SusanHolt and #DavidCoon) effectively avoid falling into the trap he has set to try and make the election about the bogus #ParentalRights argument and instead hammer him effectively on other provincial crises, such as health care, housing, etc.
The X-factor could once again be the Green Party, who could see vote bumps in ridings where fringe-PC voters don't feel like voting for another Higgs government but aren't exactly comfortable voting for the Liberals. That said, I'm not sure that vote is efficinent enough in areas to cost the PC candidate their seat.

Our evening update on #Lee shares a breakdown of impacts expected in New England and Atlantic Canada as the storm approaches. Lee will be a very serious storm surge threat for Nova Scotia, the Bay of Fundy, and perhaps portions of Downeast Maine.

#Lee is expanding in size, with TS force winds out nearly 250 miles now. This means possibly significant tidal & coastal impacts when Lee comes northward. Folks from Nantucket & Cape Cod through Maine and Atlantic Canada should be preparing.

From @mattlanza on #HurricaneLee: "Still a long way to go here, but it would probably be sensible for folks in eastern New England and Nova Scotia/New Brunswick to begin assessing their preparedness situation should a significant storm come knocking." #hurricanes #MAwx #NovaScotia #NewBrunswick #NewEngland

This has been going on for years in #canada. Most of our conservative provinces severely restrict access to abortions. My province of #newBrunswick illegally restricts access to abortions. They just get away with it.

I just applied to be a poll worker within my riding for Elections Canada. It takes about five minutes to sign up.
One way to help ensure the fairness and transparency of an election is to be a part of it! Get involved!

This is an incredibly important backgrounder from the #CBC on what is transparently happening in #NewBrunswick politics right now under the faux visage of "parental rights". Don't take this lightly.

Plus récemment, j'ai obtenu la résidence permanente pour le #Canada et une immigration au printemps prochain pour le #NewBrunswick est dans les cartons.
J'envisage de retenter une expérience d'enseignement, au moins au début, et ensuite on verra :) Vous me verrez donc exposer ici mes craintes, mes angoisses et mes recherches de maison 🏡
🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day everyone.
As it's my first Canada Day as a Canadian citizen, I thought I'd reflect on my arrival in Canada back in 2010 and what those first few months were like as I arrived in the town of Moncton. I'd never set foot in North America at the time.
I'm have a new #writing project, highlighting #nbpoli as well as #stories from my life in #newbrunswick, my travels around #canada and the #usa with rock 'n roll #bands, #backpacking photo essays, #electronics projects, #proAudioTraining etc. I'm all over the place!
I've recently taken to #gardening and am having a great time #learning and #growing.
I'm a voracious auto-dactyl; constantly absorbing about our present and our *real* past.
I am strongly #anticapitalist and want #noBillionaires.
Alright... the time has come. I am soft-launching a new writing venture, and here is my first piece, regarding the anti-2SLGBTQ+ law-meddling taking place in the Canadian province of New Brunswick.

Walked a short hike in Fundy National Park today. We didn't get to explore it as extensively as I'd like, but it has been lovely!
Today is a travel day! We're leaving Acadia, Maine, and the United States as a whole. By the end of the day, we expect to be in New Brunswick for a few days on our way up to see a few national parks up there. One such highlight is Gros Morne in New Foundland. Can't wait!

Why we have paused our CBC News Twitter accounts
Editorial independence is a bedrock principle for any credible news organization. It’s the beating heart of what we do each day in the news division of #canada’s national public broadcaster.

The 3 largest cities in #newbrunswick and the largest in #novascotia have all made similar calls for a #guarnteedBasicIncome #gbi.
GBIs have been shown to drastically improve the lives of all, by preventing the effects of poverty.
It's not rocket science. People who can afford to eat and live indoors, do better than those who cannot. Absolutely every single person on the planet should be able to afford to live.
Add your signature, and demand an end to poverty!
Protest being called on Monday, March 20th in #NewBrunswick, #NewJersey against Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens of Turning Point USA.
Kirk recently called for trans people to be "took care of" like in the 1950s and 60s" and Owens is famous for comments about Adolf Hitler.

Howdy! New instance, new introduction :)
I'm Lauren. By day, I'm a #programmer at a game studio. By night, I like making my own games, usually game jams or similar scale.
Other things I'm likely to toot about include #cats, #tabletop #miniatures, the outdoors, and probably #retro #FPS games (I think they're neat).
I'm based out of #Toronto, but am originally from #NewBrunswick, so might toot or boost things related to either. #Ontario #Canada
I also used to be an #astronomer before changing careers / quitting grad school, so if I see cool space posts I'll probably boost them.
I'm also on twitch. Maybe I'll #stream sometimes? We'll find out together :P
