The Liberal 'clean fuel regulations' are just another tax that greedily takes from New Brunswickers struggling under the crushing cost of fuel. And for what? Environment Canada has reported that this tax will cost the Canadian economy $9 billion by 2030.

Today, Mark Carney re-announced the same Liberal policies that hiked electricity prices by a third and cut production over the last decade: industrial carbon taxes, the anti-development law, the failed Infrastructure Bank, tax credits that businesses do not use, and, of course, more consultations and talk about doing something someday. More cost, more delays, more of the same. He’s just another Liberal. The Liberal government has made history: they are now the first government ever to preside over a Canadian electricity shortfall. In 2024, for the first time on record, Canada could not produce enough electricity for its own people without U.S. imports. After a decade of Liberals, Canadians are paying 35% more for electricity. Repeating the same grand promises is all an illusion.

Jon McKenzie, CEO of Cenovus, came out swinging on their Q1 conference call today. Great to see CEO's becoming more vocal about our squandered opportunity! To summarize: no other oil producing country is doing this to themselves...time for Canada to wake up!

News regarding the closure of Cape Enrage from a lack of support from the Government of New Brunswick is deeply concerning. Cape Enrage has long been a cornerstone of our region, attracting 20k to 25k visitors annually, and as many as 45k.
