We all have to pay taxes so why not have the price on the shelf be inclusive, it is not like some people do not have to pay taxes so the booze store, and gas stations were the only ones that include the price, here we go back 30 years?

I for one prefer tax inclusive pricing. What you see is what you pay. New Zealand for example has been doing this for over 30 years. I wish all retail charged this way. While i don’t like the high prices of gas, at least it’s all a tax inclusive product. Darn, this is a step backwards!

What does all this mean in terms of NB total electrical output and planned capacity over the next few decades? And how about impact on costs to the average consumer?

There are no words for tragedies like this. These are young people falling between the cracks because of ridiculous procedural practices. These are someone’s children, grandchildren, and to suggest that a young lady go and live with a sex offender in another province instead of giving help here…..my heart hurts!

IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT YOUNG PEOPLE, OR PEOPLE OF ANY AGE, ASKING FOR HELP ARE TURNED AWAY FOR SUCH STUPID REASONS. A TEEN ASKING FOR HELP BECAUSE OF AN ABUSIVE HOME LIFE IS TURNED AWAY BECAUSE THEY COULDN’T GET HOLD OF THE PARENT!!! IF YOU CAN’T GET HOLD OF THE PARENT ISN’T THAT ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT THE CHILD NEEDS HELP!!! YEARS AGO THE PEOPLE IN POSITIONS TO HELP ACTUALLY WANTED TO HELP, IT WASN’T JUST A JOB TO THEM! NOW YOU CAN FIND A FEW PEOPLE THAT REALLY WANT TO HELP AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO DO SO BUT THEY ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN!! WE NEED MORE PEOPLE THINKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE IN NEED AND NOT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT RULES AND REGULATIONS THAT HAVE TO BE FOLLOWED OR THEY WILL LOSE THEIR JOBS! A SOCIAL WORKER CAN’T EVEN GIVE YOU A LIFT TO GET SOME GROCERIES BECAUSE IT IS NOT ALLOWED! THE WAY I LOOK AT IT, HELP IS HELP, WHETHER IT IS TALKING OR ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING TO HELP. WE HAVE TOO MANY RULES WHERE THEY ARE NOT NEEDED AND TOO FEW WHERE THEY ARE!!!

Sincere condolences to his family and friends…

Condolences to his family and friends.

you shouldn’t be politicking for the firemen, isn’t this supposed to be a public service

My guess is this kind of thing has gone on “forever”, similar? to how unreported deer/moose killing goes on, or unlicensed fishing. The 10-30% wide estimate range says a lot about how little authorities really know.

Let’s hope that this housing is affordable for the average minimum wage earner, base the rents according to affordability for everyone

I hope they continue to purchase from Newfoundland after the conflict…keep as much here as possible….

Wonderful news.
