Further broadband upgrades coming to rural New Brunswick. Seventy-three thousand rural New Brunswick households will have access to high speed Internet service ...thanks to an agreement with Xplornet (XCI) to undertake upgrades to the province’s rural broadband. An important observation that has been made during the COVID-19 pandemic is an increased sense of urgency for access to quality broadband, said Environment and Climate Change Minister Gary Crossman, who is also minister responsible for the Regional Development Corporation. Today’s announcement is another example of how our government is committed to energizing the private sector and building vibrant and sustainable communities.

Remembrance Day Ceremony Blackville Municipal Park Legion Branch #49 Today’s ceremony of Remembrance was very fitting, and we were very fortunate to have it outside and in the park. Big thanks to Branch 49 Legion , the soldiers from Base Gagetown, and all who showed up. As always, I was proud to read ‘In Flanders Fields’ and lay a wreath for fallen comrades on behalf of the province. ... We are so lucky to enjoy the freedoms we have in this country. But we must never forget the cost of our freedom and the courage and sacrifice it took to achieve it. We will remember them. Lest we forget. Jake Stewart, MLA Southwest Miramichi-Bay du Vin

OTTAWA Here’s an old picture of a great day in the nations capital. Behind me you’ll see the House of Commons. Directly behind me where I sit is the Centennial Flame with the NB Coat of Arms. The Centennial Flame stays lit forever. Sometimes the fire in each of us goes down to a mere spark. This morning, the fire in my belly started to once again pick up significant steam. It’s been said before that the most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire. ... I haven’t been there in a while...I like it there. Jake Stewart, MLA Southwest a Miramichi-Bay du Vin
