We are back for our first fall 2025 podcast after our summer break. We are joined with our frequent guest commentators and NB Politics watchdogs Shawn Rouse and Teri McMackin to discuss politics in an age of rage as well as what's been happening on the NB Politics circuit

In this summer edition of the podcast, we explore the National Observer's top-tier journalism, covering the National projects that the Carney government intends to pursue. How does NB fit in? Who's having conversations with whom? What are we spotting on our horizon that we need to be ready for? We will wrap up with a discussion on the political ground NB has.

This week, we finally get to break the silence around the Spruce Lake Industrial Park conversation that led to what might be the longest public hearing in NB's history, certainly Saint John's history. The final vote was unamious support in this major industrial expansion proposal that includes two Letters of interest valued at over 2.3 billion dollars and featured some of the stiffest backlash by a community that has been seen. What went on? Why did things end with a physical altercation after the vote? Let's talk about it.

This week, we're navigating the latest roadblocks in provincial politics, from NB news updates to what’s unfolding on the world stage. We dig into Saint John’s road diets, explore hot topics across New Brunswick, and unpack the ripple effects of U.S. political drama. Whether it's local detours or global disruptions, we’ve got your political traffic report right here.

In this podcast we take the time to dive into a range of topics that we pulled out of our experience at the recent Federation of Canadian Municipalities event in Ottawa. We spoke a fair bit about Mark Carney's speech, which took place at the conference and was covered by all the national broadcast media. We also spend some time talking about our podcast friends, we had the option to meet up, the chats we had with Conservative councillors and mayors, and a big ol' rant on housing.

We FINALLY catch up on all things New Brunswick in this Podcast. We will talk about interprovincial trade barriers, school funding, community care clinics and house assessment freezes.
