Katelyn Olive sent this message to Warktimes saying her family has been rooted in the Dorchester area since 1772 and that she grew up in the village and raised her three children there.
She writes that she and her husband developed her family’s land and farmhouse into a home where she established a small equestrian lesson program.
“As a mom to Dorchester school-aged children, I was heavily invested in our school community as chair of our PSSC (Parent School Support Committee) and volunteer to many events. I have also been a girl guide leader in our community, and a proud member of the Save Our School campaign in 2015,” Olive writes.
She goes on to promise she would be a strong voice for people in the area.
“I am running to bring equal representation and fair taxation throughout Ward 1 reflective of the needs and services received both within the village limits and in the LSDs,” Olive writes.

Will Beausejour Dominic Leblanc Liberal MP Be Part of a Pre-Election Debate at the University Campus?
Here's what Mario Levesque at Mount Allison University had to say about Dominic Leblanc in conversation with CHMA FM reporter Erica Butler on December 18th, 2024 .. interesting to see how this election will turn out in 2025. Levesque states quite clearly: "This riding [Beausejour] is his [Dominic Leblanc's] as long as he wants it."
Mount Allison University has been a very strong promoter and supporter of the Liberal mafia...
there is no disputing this simple truth here.
Listen to the full interview here:
What does the future hold for 'most loyal' MP Dominic LeBlanc? » CHMA, Voice of the Marshes
Our Federal Election date is April 28, 2025.
One final note about Dominic Leblanc: His career in Ottawa as Beausejour's Liberal MP has spanned over two decades; he is a fighter, a hard-worker, a prolific networker, a guy who appears to want to work with all parties in the political spectrum, a calm statesman, and survivor, a big bear of a man, and he is charming as hell.. so he will no doubt be re-elected in 2025 with the Mark Carney regime getting their mandate to speak for all Canadians, again.... just the opinion of this humble reporter.
A defining feature of this country at this point and doesn't appear to be changing anytime soon is the "Liberal Party of Canada" full spectrum dominance.. why else do you think Trump would prefer to work with Mark Carney [better the devil you know].
And try as hard as the 'green cult' here in academia might try their fringe green ideas will never obtain as much popularity as the Liberals [Megan Mitton's event held on campus pre-election Mount Allison's library shown above].

Megan Mitton Green MLA Declared Winner of the Tantramar Riding in Election 2024
Can see live results here coming in tonight..
New Brunswick election results: Live numbers from the 2024 vote - New Brunswick | Globalnews.ca
and congratulations are in order for an election victory for the LGBTQ advocate and the first mother to get to work with her "tits out" breastfeeding in the New Brunswick legislature .. a claim to fame.. McGill University alumni and political candidate Megan Mitton Green MLA.
Knock yourselves out celebrating tonight folks as its a big win for the ideologues here yet again. It has been so VERY helpful to Megan Mitton to be promoted heavily by the locals here employed at Mount Allison University including a large "Re-Elect Megan Mitton" advertisement in the October 3rd, 2024 student newspaper {The Argosy} promising the following goodies:
* increase funding for public universities and community colleges through stable, multi-year financing to reduce tuition fees.
* raise the family income threshold for the Tuition Bursary with a long-term goal of achieving free tuition
*create a New Brunswick Debt Relief Program to forgive outstanding provincial student loan debt at a rate of up to 20% per year for up to five years
*eliminate credit checks associated with student loan and bursary application process "
"Tantramar is a provincial electoral district located in Southeast New Brunswick. This riding is currently represented by Green MLA Megan Mitton who first took office in 2018. Mitton collected 3,425 votes, winning 41.61 per cent of the vote in the 2020 New Brunswick provincial election.
For many voters, their riding may have changed in this upcoming provincial election.
In 2022, the provincial government tasked the Electoral Boundaries Commission with redrawing the boundaries of New Brunswick’s 49 electoral ridings to be used in the next provincial election. Provincial law requires the boundaries to be reviewed every 10 years."

Andrew Black for Mayor - What [Gossipy] Folks Are Saying on Facebook.... "Weak Leadership" ?
Facebook page is a hotbed of activity due to the three-way-race for Mayor of Tantramar -- some people are concerned that criticism of candidates is unfair and unwarranted but is it? Is ethics and character and moral courage needed?
Newcomer to politics Josh Goguen works at Moneris and is running for Town Councillor.. he also runs a local Facebook group about "Sackville NB Community Chatter" but its marked 'Private' [which has about 1,100 fans] ... Josh doesn't seem very 'transparent' to me at this point... Josh Gougen was interviewed by Erica Butler at this link:
Meet the candidates: Josh Goguen, running in Ward 3 (Central Sackville) » CHMA 106.9 FM (chmafm.com)
This was an image on Andrew Black [ deputy Mayor of the Town of Sackville ] shared at:
Sackville NB Community Concerns | Facebook
As in the past pages like Josh's page and "Sackville NB Community Concerns" should be monitored closely for growing an ongoing 'gossipy' culture in the small town... including gossip now being posted by a so-called 'housing scarcity activist' Jean-Pascal here -- it seems there is going to be plenty of mudslinging at all the candidates in this local election - candidates will have to have thick skin [or stay off Facebook and rise above it]:
"Jean-Pascal Lavoie
Cheryl MacNeill Sears Never have we had an expat whom held close ties to the Albertan Conservative party return back to the region to then run for mayor before.
These attacks are made by a multitude of fake account created by a close contact of the mayoral candidate in question."
I find politics divisive, unpleasant, ugly and a waste of precious time and energy.
I don't share the optimism of Sahitya Pendurthi has about the reality of democracy in Canada...
here with Erica, the newcomer let's us know her story to becoming "Canadian" -- at this link:
.... these are the candidates who believe in the process who are there for your votes [ they will be paid a few thousand dollars a month for their troubles if elected; Mayor will now be receiving close to $50K per year for the job ]:

Bonnie Swift for Town of Tantramar Mayor 2022 -- Find "Bonnie Swift for Mayor" on Facebook
Hi Everyone, I excited to inform my mayoral platform is up. It is incredibly detailed that is because the issues we are facing are extraordinarily complex. It includes the following:
• Government Transparency, because we certainly need it
• Our new Town of Tantramar and moving forward
• Who I am and my management culture and style
• Why we need Citizen Engagement
• Our Healthcare Crisis and our Hospital
• Affordable Housing
• Climate change, and how we can adapt."
I look forward to seeing Bonnie Swift in action as Mayor of the Town of Tantramar... in a positive timeline outcome! Election this month. Vote!!!
CHMA FM's reporter David Gordon Koch spoke with Bonnie:
Meet the candidates: Bonnie Swift, running for mayor of Tantramar » CHMA 106.9 FM (chmafm.com)
Hi everyone, I know some of you mentioned you'd like to help with my campaign. I need help with flyers and signs. Donations would help a lot to they can be texted my 506 536 7801. If you are interested in helping you can PM me."
"I received this comment from the young vet that I hugged last night when everyone was just watching his lengthy angry outburst on how vets have been treated in this country. I all I could do was feel his pain. He suffers from PTSD and was he was severely injured while fighting for his country. This is what he said about my hug.
"Hi Bonnie,
I just wanted to say thank you once again. I owe you one. Please share my comments below publicly. That hug you gave me is a cherished moment I will never forget.
I don’t know Bonnie, we’ve just met, but we are going to be fast friends. This Veteran angrily took over the candidates forum and there was no stopping me, not from any man. Bonnie defused the entire situation with a hug. I was done, you can’t come back from that. This was an act of love and leadership by example. We desperately need woman leaders, like Bonnie. If we did the world would be a much better place.
Cpl (Ret) Scott Timpa, CD
Army Veteran.
Cheers
Scott"
I am getting nice feedback on my campaign. This lady asked me to share her post.
"You are head and shoulders above your competition and Tantramar needs you as their leader. Your knowledge and experience is astounding. You have educated yourself on every critical issue in this region, and it is very refreshing to see someone so passionate about entering local politics with such a comprehensive platform.
I wish you success on November 28th. What an amazing Council it would be with you as Mayor.
Paula"
Bonnie Swift's platform & flyers here:
Met with Sackville Mayoral candidate Bonnie Swift; excellent connection. Let's vote her in so she can clean up this town and give the citizens the respect they deserve, better leadership!"
