Thank you so much to @matwhynott and @JordanLeichnitz for joining us last week for a wide-ranging conversation about the political landscape in Canada, the @NDP 's leadership race, and Atlantic Canada. It's one of our most anticipated conversations yet! #Nbpoli 1/3

We do apologise for the slightly choppy audio that occurs throughout the pod. This is the first time we have experienced this problem, and we are chalking it up to internet issues on our end, but the conversation is definitely worth listening to. 2/3

After two weeks of running around we are back to talk about the recent developments in #nbpoli . We've got former premier Higgs calling on @pcnbca members to shrink the party and keep out potential former green and liberal supporters and candidates. 1/3

We also have interim leader Glen Savoie chastising their own members at an AGM for helping Liberals beat conservatives to dive into. We also have a new federal budget, a 2 billion dollar data centre coming to NB, and some recent elections in the US that are worth diving into. 2/3

This week we venture back to our discussion on the topic of a Maritime union and expand it to the idea and potential of an Atlantic Union. We hit on the recent Newfoundland election as well. #nbpoli #nfldpoli #cdnpoli

This week, we cover the issue of housing in New Brunswick with the Executive Director of the NB non-profit housing association, Peter Corbyn. It's long overdue, as we have covered housing numerous times over the past two-and-a-half years. #nbpoli #housing

It's been a long time but we are finally able to discuss the Spruce Lake Industrial park conversation in SJ and how it became the longest public process in NB planning history. We look at the need for new industrial options for our province and the concerns of the public. 1/2

This was a polarized topic du jour in SJ but it has #nbpoli ramifications as SJ becomes the first municipality with 1 active mega project underway (NexGen) and 2 letters of intent for a combined $3.4 billion in investment that aligns with the new National projects initiative.

This has all the ingredients to become a more controversial episode with plenty of people who vehemently disagree with the decision that was made. What are your thoughts? Listen and write us at [email protected]
