I assume the "parental rights" crowd embrace all trans kids who came out to their parents first right? And they love and embrace all 18 year Olds + who are trans right? Cause their only issue is parental rights and not trans people right?

During Covid phases anti maskers were yelling about freedoms and choices
Now that masks aren't mandatory they are berating people who are using their freedoms and choices to wear a mask.
It's not about rights or freedoms or facts. It's about being contrarian and a bully.

I tweeted this morning that my anxiety was bad today. This happens maybe 3-4 times per year. Not great but not debilitating. I have medication I have a therapist if needed. I tweet about it just because I want to normalize the discussion not to create any attention for myself 1/2

I hope there is a public inquiry into NB handling of Covid. We have done some things well, document those. we have done some things less well, document those. Come up with a strategy for future pandemics and ensure PH is fully arm's length from politics.

NB: worse healthcare!
Higgs: but surpluses!
NB: no teachers!
Higgs: but surpluses!
NB: housing affordability!
Higgs: but surpluses!
NB: election time!
Higgs: ummm deficits?!
At a PC nomination meeting tonight in Bathurst, Premier Blaine Higgs hinted that tomorrow's first-quarter fiscal update will project a deficit for 2024-25 because of travel nurse costs but said there's time to turn that around. In a scrum, he would not provide a figure.

You can still shop local regardless of the Covid colour. Most local businesses will go out of their way to help you. Call them.
Don't carry the exact item you want? Call them and ask
Don't want to go instore?
Call them and ask for options.
Call/email/ FB messenger them.

Once upon a time (20yrs ago) I frequented a local drinking establishment so much that when I entered the bar there would be a cold beer already waiting for me. Today the same bartender (different bar) remembered the brand I used to drink. That my friends, is customer service.

As Brad approaches 1 million views I am sure it eclipses anything he has done before. Hope it sheds light on his talent and he is able to come out from the shadows and get the attention his art deserves. So happy for him.
When the next total solar eclipse passes over Fredericton in 2079 and our son is 60 years old, I hope he looks back at this photo and remembers this day.

Apologies to my employer for being late to work 3 days this week. Had to take my child to school. No buses.
Also, apologies for leaving work early for 4 days, 3 because no buses and one because I wanted to leave work early.

How dare the unwashed peasants be so negative about our act of charity.
I spoke to Premier Higgs about those $300 cheques.
"This is a $75 million affordability measure that should be seen as a good news story. ...In my position, you almost go back and say, 'Wow, with this much negativity around it, why did we do it to begin with?'"

And a HST cut? 7 years in government and all of a sudden they have a bright idea to cut HST to try and win an election. They don't care about affordability they care about buying votes.
Todays announcement will be a catchy campaign slogan (will will be the opposite of what PCNB represent), announcement of campaign chairs/leads. A jobs announcement and a spending announcement (or 2). Then a door knocking blitz in the coming week.
Trying to win back momentum.
