@RedTory1 @jernalistNB @optimistictory 100% agree. This age group views Carney as best protecting the status quo (they won him the last elxn) & best candidate to take on Trump even though he has failed miserably thus far. Unless we have a deep recession I don't see anything changing in their vote intention.

@jernalistNB @optimistictory I had lunch with 3 (also) boomer friends a month ago, all have children/ grandchildren, I pointedly asked them how they felt about a future of higher taxes and lower standard of living for their offspring, all said they didn't care as they'd be dead, they were serious, yeesh

Anecdotally, my experience has been that boomers decided Carney was/is their guy, and it doesn't matter what he does.

@Hershel_Lives @KeeganMatheson 1000%. Major unlucky break with that the double called. Still 0 out with RISP with chance to win WS? A dream scenario squandered.

@KeeganMatheson I’d want to win game 6 down 2 in the 9th with 2nd and 3rd none out.. that’s what I’d want

#BlueJays manager John Schneider: “It’s Game 7 of the World Series at your home stadium. What the hell else could you want?”

@darrenblois1 Completely false. It's about sustainable immigration numbers that ensure we have the resources (healthcare, housing, social supports, employment) for newcomers (& existing Vto have the success. The vast majority of Cdns feel the number needs to be lowered, not eliminated.

Conservatives tell you that immigrants are ruining this country. what do YOU think? #cdnpoli #nbpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

@LPNewBrunswick @ElsiesWoke @darrenblois1 The PC party will move more Libertarian in the future so might be a better chance of you joining us than vice versa. 🙂 The status quo in NB can't continue & eventually right leader will come along and tackle the structural problems in NB.

@Insurance4uNB @ElsiesWoke @darrenblois1 I'm here to collect all the radicals who don't share what the alleged "Conservatives" consider common sense.

“Blaine Higgs has not had a sufficient opportunity to influence the contemporary direction of the PCNB.” - Blaine Higgs, 2025

@ElsiesWoke @darrenblois1 Common sense Conservatism is making a strong comeback in Western democracies. The pendulum swung progressive for the last election but I don't expect that to last long especially with pending disaster of Carney in Ottawa & it's effects on NB.

@Insurance4uNB @darrenblois1 I agree with this one.

@ElsiesWoke @darrenblois1 It will easily swing back PC next elxn. Voters were frustrated on many issues & the infighting took a major toll on mounting a competent re-election campaign. The key thing now is refocusing party on future vision & moving on from members who don't share common sense principles.

@Insurance4uNB @darrenblois1 Higgs lost his own riding, which was traditionally a pretty safe conservative riding.

@darrenblois1 @ElsiesWoke The alt-right narrative was an invention of the media because literally a few people out of thousands of supporters had a controversial history. NB voters have little patience when sitting gov'ts don't deliver I would not be overconfident yet about 2028.

@ElsiesWoke You know your party better than I do. Its just my observation that you are underestimating the alt-christian-right change that has occurred in the Tory membership in the past five years.

@darrenblois1 @ElsiesWoke Higgs has much more support in the party than Allain which is why the DA backed party candidate lost over the weekend @ AGM..The party will rebuild with a new working class focus for 2028 & now that the rebels have been mostly purged, a new vision for PCNB can begin.

@ElsiesWoke You guys are spending a lot of time talking about a guy you told me last week was irrelevant!

@missmassform @nohelmete @premierbhiggs This is an awesome group and we are far from done..😉

@Insurance4uNB @nohelmete @premierbhiggs Nice picture!

Higgs was trying to protect kids and I will always be thankful for this.💕 @premierbhiggs "But after his government introduced the province’s policy on gender identity in schools in June 2023, he faced active dissent in the Tory caucus." globalnews.ca/news/11495360/…

@nohelmete @missmassform @premierbhiggs His legacy to me was he was a good person trying to do the right thing for NB and he should be proud of that.

@Insurance4uNB @missmassform @premierbhiggs Good… I was happy to see he was at the convention … yes, Blaine Higgs still has a lot to offer to our Province! We have lost a lot of ground the past year!

@nohelmete @missmassform @premierbhiggs Got to say hi to him yesterday and he was in great spirits. He will be an asset to a future leadership candidate who wants to fix the travesty in our education system.

@missmassform @premierbhiggs He was a great Premier… as he said, he close to die on that hill to save our kids! However, I’m sure he doesn’t regret it!

Walked through this house with a contractor friend at the original sale we thought $100k was too much at the time given the scope of work. It is a great neighbourhood and nice renovation but overpaying for a massive reno project rarely works out in an unpredictable market.

@mdhiggs @jernalistNB Exactly, Trump has a history of saying outlandish things (Build the Wall?) that we shouldn't take seriously. Elbows up is going to cost tens of thousands of CDN jobs & already driving us into more debt & higher unemployment with a trade war we can't win with our closest ally.

@mdhiggs @jernalistNB My wife just came back from a trip to Boston and no issues at all. We are on the outside looking in with US due to our arrogance & people pushing the narrative that US evil same ones that fell for the "Elbows up" scam which predictably was a useless slogan.

@paulontherun @jernalistNB @mdhiggs The Liberals took sides in the US election which massively backfired. We should have stayed neutral & worked with whoever was elected. US our key trading partner/ally & we are reaping results of Liberal fumbling relationship instead of staying pragmatic.

@jernalistNB @mdhiggs I’m not sure what his point is? But I think he wants us to think that we should be supporting a country who’s working against us. Which is an odd position to take.

@SharonT20519250 @mdhiggs We mainly don't travel to US as often now just due to the poor exchange rate. It was Canadian arrogance to think us staying home would hurt the US, they have 10x pop. & significantly more purchasing power per capita.

@mdhiggs Americans are exploring their country..good for them, Maine ..an extension of NB..is beautiful.

@mdhiggs @jernalistNB FL the same. Was it CBC who said Canadians leaving would devastate US tourism? wlrn.org/business/2025-…

@mdhiggs @jernalistNB Given the dramatic drop in Canadian tourism Maine faring well. US doesn't need us. newscentermaine.com/article/money/…

@WMGullison They want a system that guarantees in perpetuity move revenue for government to protect jobs and maintain the status quo. To date Holt has caved at every demand of labour & civil service until the tap is turned off by end of Year 2 our net debt will be back over $14 billion +.

@Insurance4uNB Exactly. People shouldn't go broke trying to afford a home because of property taxes, which in turn are used for wants. Services should be focused on "essentials". Pet projects like Arena's and playhouses should be built and operated by the private sector.

I was on the provincial committee for property tax reform in 2021 and at that time the majority of government depts were against changes for a more fair + cost effective tax system for homeowners. Govt and politicians love the extra revenue for pet projects and vote buying.

@WMGullison 100% agree. The reality is we live far beyond our means in NB with a bloated civil service & an economy that is dependent on federal transfer payments with no government focused on bringing down costs. My argument was for property tax tied to CPI which civil servants opposed. 1)
