My landlord cut off the electric heating that comes from the baseboards. The only source of heat is a ducted heat pump, but it's not enough and It gets really cold at night and it's only gonna get worse during winter.

I haven't signed the lease yet. I'm scared he will give the place to someone else if I complain without having given my signature but I don't wanna commit if this place is too cold

Heard three times now from well informed sources that the Liberals are very worried about losing Fredericton South Silverwood, Susan Holt's riding. A quick pass though there today would indicate that might be true given how few Liberal signs there are. Lots of Green Party and PC on private lawns, few Liberal. Any intel?

I am looking to do a 4 team, 2 man scramble, and was considering the Moncton area, what would the 3 Best courses within an hour of Moncton to do a tournament.

Also considering adding a par 3 course as a 4th round.

Would need to be public courses, ideally the best the area has to offer.

Thank you!

In Moncton the fall foliage colour changes are starting, it's probably another week before peak colours in Centennial.

How's it going in the rest of the province? Please post updates from your area or travels!

As for scenic drives go, I will be checking out the loop drive from Moncton through Fundy Park North entrance and back along the Hillsborough road, along the coast.

Any other suggestions?

She was an absolute cancer to that department and especially for Tourism. Happy for the staff there.
She should never manage people.

Will an airbag light or service airbag notification be an automatic fail on a vehicle?

This is a long shot but I live near Fredericton and my birthday is coming up in October. I want to do something/go somewhere for it that relates to any of my interests but I don't really know where to look for stuff going on. I'll put a list of stuff I like below and if anyone knows of anything going on in the Fredericton/ surrounding areas or just places that exist that would be interesting to go to that would be amazing! I'd be willing to drive like a max 2 hours, maybe 3, outside Fredericton depending on how interesting it is lol and 19+ events are welcome. I'm just lost on ideas of stuff to do for that day

-I like history a lot and anything to do with history, like museums, etc (but I've been to Kings Landing a million times so not that lol) -I really like all types of creepy crawlies, especially tarantulas, and reptiles so anything to do with them or places you could hold them or something (I'd literally settle for just a pet store I can watch them in lol) -I love antiques, thrifting, estate sales, etc -I love art and just creating things (been to almost every gallery in Freddy tho and done those clay painting things a bunch) -live music is awesome -I'm a pretty big stoner -love plants -honestly love anything to do with nature but don't want to go hiking

Any unique or fun things you can think of even if they don't fit those things are welcome to!

Does anyone know anything about Daniel Chippin, the PC candidate for Fredericton-Lincoln? I have yet to see a single sign with his face on it, and his candidate page is weirdly uninformative. It seems really odd that the PCs don't seem to be running much of a candidate against David Coon (though I won't complain).

Blaine and his buddies showed up at the market, shaking hands & getting photo opps. 🤮

Does anybody keep a deep freezer in an unheated detached garage in NB? We could really benefit from having a deep freezer but we don’t have the indoor space for it. Our garage is perfectly suited for one - but it’s unheated and I wonder about winter operation.

If anybody has tips I’d appreciate it!

Thanks

I don't live in Canada anymore, and my parents are going to come and visit me. Flights are quite expensive, so looking at the best travel credit cards to accumulate points to buy flights.

I saw that airmiles isn't in grocery stores anymore, but rather Scene+.

Between airmiles, Aeroplan, Scene+, PC/optimum, etc, what's your preferred program?

I have to be honest. My dive into past elections has not been as all encompassing as this one, but still I think PCs have outdone themselves in weird this time. There’s Faytene, and Kimi and a bunch of unknowns, the flyers, the misinformation and PCs running as Liberals….Is this a particularly bazaar election or are they all like this and I haven’t been watching?

To anyone that moved in the past several years, and you haven't recieved mail from elections NB..... You're probably not on the voting list. Elections NB has no record of us. We've voted both federally and municipally at this address, pay property taxes though, have health cards, drivers licenses and paid provincial taxes... All from this address...and elections NB has no record of us... What the heck? I'll be going to advanced voting and register at that time, glad I called

I wish I had an actual excerpt to show as proof, but I guess you'll just have to trust me.

CHQC (French Radio station in Saint John) had Glen Savoie, the current Minister of the Francophone, on for an interview to discuss the election stuff as you do.

The interviewer asked Glen why his sign of all people running in the election was not billingual. Glen said that it was. That's when the interviewer showed him a picture taken by a listener to which he stammered and pushed the blame stating that he wasn't responsible for his signs being made.

Sure enough if you drive down Bayside Drive towards the refinery in Saint John a sticker has been added to his sign making it billingual.

I wish I had receipts as this was just an interview I caught on the radio, but I thought it was quite humorous and don't see it being shared anywhere.

Hi everyone,

I'm a first-year international student (female) planning to move to Fredericton, New Brunswick this December for the Winter'25 semester. I'm having trouble deciding between on-campus residence and external housing.

Which option would be more suitable for a first-year student like me?

I'm leaning towards on-campus residence for the convenience and community, but the meal plan is making it quite expensive. Also, its urgent because dorm seats fill up fast, so I need to take a decision fast

Are dorms generally cheaper than external housing? Or the opposite? If so, where should I look for apartments or rooms for rent close to campus?

I'd prefer to have female roommates, ideally from a South Asian background. Also

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

I just finished watching the provincial debate. Higg's hypocrisy was painful, as to be expected, but Susan Holt wasn't much better. She spent more time attacking Higgs than explaining her plan for the future. David Coon seemed to rise above the bullshit and say what needs to be said. I used to be a public school teacher here before the job completely broke me. This summer, I wrote a long, detailed letter of recommendations to improve the education system and mailed it to all three candidates as well as other NB MLAs. David Coon actually took the time to send me a well written email and asked for my opinion on several other issues he had discussed with educators in Fredericton. I want to keep living here in New Brunswick, I want to be part of a society that functions properly, and I want a leader who isn't giving up on us. Imagine if we had someone who cares at the helm. I'm so discouraged at this point but I'm holding on to the possibility that the greens could actually pull through.
