Very sorry to learn of Ivan Court's passing. Ivan served as the 65th Mayor from 2008 to 2012, he was also a teacher and profound family-man. He was a great believer in the potential of our community - he will be missed. My thoughts are with Ivan's family.

We’re freezing your property assessment value for 2026 so that it won’t increase next year. While we continue our work to create a more predictable and fair property tax system, we’re taking action now to provide you with some stability. www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/...

Lots of traveling today, beginning in Moncton with Minister Miles to tour the MacDonald Centre for Independent Living. A quick layover in Fredericton to meet with the province’s non-profit housing executives. And then joining Premier Holt in Nackawic to visit the town’s newest housing development.

Renters in New Brunswick, we’ve got your back! We’ve introduced a 3% rent cap to ensure you can continue to afford a place to call home.

Trump tariffs matter for Saint John, in fact they matter the most in the entire country. They want us to misstep, knowing the devastating consequences they will have on communitiesties like ours. I'm glad to have @susanholtnb.bsky.social taking the exact right steps for us in Washington this week.

Agree. That’s why we moved quick on the rent cap. More supply on the market will help with the scarcity of units, while NB housing adds to the public housing stock. That’s the hope, happy to discuss further.

Ensuite, à Fredericton, j'ai visité Maple Leaf Homes Inc. pour discuter des logements modulaires et visiter leurs installations. Ces acteurs comprennent que nous sommes en pleine crise du logement et répondent avec l’urgence dont le Nouveau-Brunswick a besoin. Nous sommes là pour les soutenir.

Appreciate the thoughtfulness from a policy perspective of also targeting the sales tax on new multi-unit dwellings and thinking through capital improvements that are necessary.
