Someone who's been hiding through all this - Saint Croix's MLA Kathy Bockus.
Where the hell is she? Why is she not fighting to bring affordable housing, or a warming shelter to her hometown? Her constituents are DYING as she does nothing.
These deaths are on her watch.

Just to put this into perspective —
Population St. Stephen: 4,510 (Census 2021)
People experiencing homelessness: ~100
That’s 2.2 per cent of the population.
No normal well adjusted person, politician or not, sets out to intentionally ruin another person’s Christmas. And then publicly announces it. Especially when the reason is all rooted lies to begin with. Poilievre is unraveling before your eyes because he can’t make his lies stick
It is no secret that Canada has a reputation for kindness, breathtaking scenery, and the best tasting maple syrup the world has to offer. We have also shown the world that we are a welcoming place for newcomers to settle and start a new life.
This year, as New Brunswickers join their fellow Canadians in marking our nation’s 156th birthday, I hope you take a few moments to reflect upon all the things that make Canada such a great place to call home.
I am proud to be Canadian and proud of all we have accomplished as a country. I look forward to seeing what we can achieve together in the years ahead.
Enjoy a safe and happy Canada Day.

Tout le monde sait que le Canada est reconnu pour la gentillesse de sa population, ses paysages à couper le souffle et le meilleur sirop d’érable au monde. Nous avons aussi montré au monde entier que nous sommes une terre d’accueil pour les nouveaux arrivants qui veulent s’établir et commencer une nouvelle vie.
Cette année, alors que les gens du Nouveau-Brunswick se joignent aux autres Canadiens pour souligner le 156e anniversaire de notre pays, j’espère que vous prendrez quelques moments pour réfléchir à ce qui fait du Canada un endroit merveilleux où il fait bon vivre.
Je suis fier d’être Canadien et fier de ce que nous avons accompli en tant que pays. J’ai hâte de voir ce que nous pourrons accomplir ensemble au cours des années à venir.
Je vous souhaite de passer une joyeuse fête du Canada en toute sécurité.
Olivia Chow is the FIRST racialized person to become mayor of Toronto. Talk about representation! It only took 189 years (since 1834) to see some representation. History is made today. It's worth celebrating!
. Premier Higgs’ inability to remember his own words has been an increasing problem over the last year+.
His caucus knows this isn’t true. The civil service know it isn’t true. The public knows it isn’t true. This example is very public. Many others aren’t. Yet.
Higgs refused to pay government employees a livable wage, he shut down the province's only safe abortion clinic, he tried to end French Immersion, he's trying to privatize healthcare... and now he's buying literal shit.
He needs to go.
Time for a Vote of No Confidence.

Wait... the NB NDP convention is being held AT THE MONCTON LIONS' CLUB?!
This little place?
Sensational. Good for them.
Perfect place to dissolve a party.
*Outsiders infiltrate provincial party, report to journalist instead of internal discussion at a convention less than a month away, ultimately kill any legitimacy or integrity that was left.
I found out that federal NDPers were doing a coordinated attack targeting me when I came back to try and help with comms.
Exec members tried to make me resign over my "out of control twitter".
And my swearing 🤬
Honestly I'm so unprofessional.
Some fools in the NB NDP council just pressured @mbgthomason out of leadership of the NB NDP.
I hope they realize the Feds will go back to ignoring New Brunswick completely as soon as they "fix" their problem of having a socialist leader.
The Canadian/American land border should only be closed when trying to keep something out.
Omicron was already in Canada when they made the decision.
The border was closed & families were separated (again) for financial reasons.
And where is Trudeau now?
Out of the country.
How has there never been a vote of no confidence against this Premier?
CUPE, indigineous lands, protecting Irving, now the handling of supplies & vaccines.
Something has to be done, or things are just going to keep getting worse.

Blaine Higgs has failed his constituents.
Dorothy Shephard has failed her constituents.
They weren't diligent enough when things were salvageable, and now it's out of control they're looking for shortcuts.
Why are they not being removed from their positions?
