Just a few shots from my time in the area before going to PEI, wanted to say thanks to those who recommended places to stop. It did happen to be quite foggy but it added to the charm of the region. The locals are great, I found it interesting that I was asked more than once if I was visiting for work.

The fee isn't high enough and doesn't reflect the actual costs these nincompoops impose on everyone else, delaying rollout of a smart grid and all of the benefits that come with it.

Opt out shouldn't even be allowed. If it is, then the fee should be $50/month of something more reflective of the costs.

New Brunswickers have questions about data centre development, including the potential impacts on local communities and the benefits these projects could bring to the province. As interest in data centre development continues to grow, the Government of New Brunswick, through the New Brunswick Growth Office (NBGO), is seeking public input on a proposed policy framework to guide future projects. 

The framework outlines the government's priorities and criteria for responsible data centre development and is intended to ensure that any projects align with New Brunswick's economic, environmental, and community interests. We invite New Brunswickers to review the proposed framework and share their feedback.

Currently in Rothesay/Quispamsis for work, and I’ve noticed that every other lawn and patch of grass (residential, commercial, and public) has a “poison - treated with pesticides” sign on it. Coming from a province that doesn’t allow cosmetic pesticide application (ex. for killing dandelions in your lawn), it‘s been weird to see! I read that a few towns in NB (Sackville, St. Andrews, and Caraquet I believe?) have banned the use of cosmetic pesticides altogether. I’m wondering how common it is in other areas of NB to see these signs everywhere? Does it depend on the neighborhood? (I know forestry and agricultural spraying is a whole other issue as well)!

Hi everyone! I’m currently working on a project centred around the voices and experiences of people who have lived in New Brunswick’s care system. As someone with lived experience in the NB care system myself, this is something that is very close to my heart, and I would love to hear from others who have experienced it too.

I’d love to know what you wish the people and systems responsible for supporting you had known or understood — whether that’s government, social workers, group home staff, foster parents, lawyers, schools, or anyone else who had a hand in your life and the lives of other vulnerable young people in care.

What worked? What didn’t? What do you wish they had done differently? What do you think people working with youth in care need to understand?

Feel free to share in the replies, or send me a DM if you’d rather not share your experiences publicly. You can share as much or as little as you’re comfortable with.

I’d really love to hear from you 💌

This is a long shot, but i figured it was worth putting out there.

I was driving a black Hyundai Elantra on the highway today and ended up riding/driving alongside a woman on a motorcycle for a bit. You were absolutely flying down the highway and made my boring drive way more interesting.

If you think this might have been you and you’d like to say hey, send me a message. If not, no worries at all.

I'm visiting Fundy national park for the first time and I noticed it says "one sleeping unit" I usually camp with my tent trailer and one small 4 person tent.

Has anyone done this and it be ok? We'll be at headquarters campground. Our tent trailer and tent can both fit on the gravel pad if that's their concern

Also have people brought a propane fire pit to headquarters campground and had no issues?

Thanks!

I have a 20 foot camper trailer that I am towing from Calais into NB (Toyota Tundra with relatively long mirrors). Are side view mirror extensions required at the border crossing? I bought some strap on extension mirrors but I don’t want to drive with them. The trailer has a backup camera that works really well.
