MLA Megan Mitton deleted her X account .. 

curiously....


What reason did she give for removing her X account?

"Dear X" has been missing from the landscape for many years..  just sayin...

I’m very concerned about the declining literacy scores we’re seeing in NB classrooms. NB’s PISA scores were 34 to 36 points lower in math, science, and reading compared to the rest of Canada. While I’m glad to see that the Holt government rolled back some of the AI curriculum they had planned, encouraging AI in classrooms while cutting library jobs is a step in the wrong direction for literacy. Right now, we need to support students and teachers with the right resources in our classrooms to provide a high-quality, inclusive education for every student."

Megan's quest for an "inclusive education" is typical word salad from a politician.. and as always I remain unimpressed.

So, where is the opposition in Tantramar to Megan Mitton's advocacy? Is there any?

Some discussions on the local hospital and Megan Mitton Green Tantramar MLA here:

Tantramar MLA Megan Mitton running for NB Green Party leadership |

"Allen says:

Standing up for what? The hospital was largely saved by the efforts of two former mayors, not hers. She brought nothing to this town to improve the economy or jobs. She has no economic plans…..just out there trying to shut stuff down. She’s too far left and not practical enough for most of us. If it wasn’t for the University and their ilk, she would not be elected.

Comment from Bruce Wark: Thanks for your comment Allen, but I’m afraid you are rewriting history. The reason that Blaine Higgs cancelled his plans to close rural hospitals, including Sackville’s in February 2020, was that he had a minority government with the Greens holding 3 seats and the People’s Alliance holding 3 more. Green leader David Coon said openly his party would vote to bring the government down if it pressed ahead with its plans. Megan Mitton held one of those three seats. The two former Sackville mayors had no power to bring the government down, but Megan Mitton and her fellow elected Greens did. And that’s why Higgs abandoned his plans and moreover, refused to honour his promise to come to Sackville and explain his position. I covered it all and saw it happen. So, please don’t rewrite history this way."

 Poetry on the Poles - September 14.. missing..


"Dear X" story.. is still missing after four years... which is a pity....

"Poetry on Poles" on Main Street is a series of plaques from September 1 to September 30 showing passages authored by Douglas Lochhead 1922-2011

Seems unfortunate to me that the petty town hall staffers would rather block me on their Twitter than act in good faith and take action on a request to replace this missing plaque which was lost after a storm took out a power pole that was later removed along with the attached plaque and lost from the landscape... Bruce Phinney Town Councillor advised he would look into it but nothing has been done.. what do these elected people actually do for their paycheques?  Seems like Bruce is a little wrapped up in the local fire hall drama... more here:

just noticing.. as always.
