Nothing is ever in the bag. It’s all about GOTV at the local level, riding by riding.

Still feeling good at 40% plus.
The Liberals are doing better at the expense of the NDP and Singh has the largest leader negatives.Carney hasn’t been tested so far & he has zero campaign experience. So does the party w/out Trudeau
Singh made a grave error in not forcing an election under Trudeau.

observation: “…events have only underscored my belief the provincial government is deeply failing New Brunswickers. This case reminds me of a captain who has abandoned ship, mid-stream & left it to a few passengers to bring the vessel safely home.” The Hon J. Robertson, K.C.,retired #nbpoli

And the report from council in committee includes a resolution to accept the new costs and hike the city debt portion from $22.6-million to $44.8-million.
The project is still in the ground with foundation work. Expect another increase before substantial completion. #Fredericton

I wrote a letter to PAC on January 13 to support the requested amendment as I feel the developer has made great efforts to strike the right balance.
Given City Center Secondary Municipal Plan, PAC denied the application on technical merits, which made sense. Council is not PAC.

..government talk responsibly about budgeting & spending *our* money. Is this a return of ‘Blue Liberal’ mindset? It’s been decades since the last such Liberal with McKenna.
(A former Liberal Cabinet minister told me once McKenna wasn’t a Liberal.) #nbpoli /end

Impressed her government is already talking cuts, perhaps some deep, to shoulder weaker revenues, as part of their promise of balanced budgets.
While proof and extent of their efforts to balance will only be seen in March, it’s refreshing hearing a Liberal… #nbpoli +
