This is hilariously sad.
People of Maine, please get rid of this pathetic politician.

@kaicable.bsky.socialSNB is one of the worst and most inept government organizations I’ve had the displeasure or having to deal with in all of Canada.
I understand why they have ‘we won’t accept abusive language’ posters plastered everywhere in their offices.
@thomjeff.bsky.socialHas Holt Government fixed this? Next time there is a news conference on tariffs and the message of we need to be all elbows up and work together, I hope a reporter asks about this specific case & why NB isn’t like NS. #nspoli #nbpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
@thomjeff.bsky.socialLast week, minister of education said it sometimes stability can be good even when NB ranks dead last on test scores and a full 1.5-yrs behind the national average.
Now Lepreau on another shutdown, second in two weeks. But hey, the systems worked as planned.
Both point to a larger issue. #nbpoli
@thomjeff.bsky.socialListened to Jacques’ interview w/ CEO of Northcliff on proposed Sisson Mine project.
I’m even less convinced of the economic benefits given a question on number of jobs & a needed taxpayer-backed offtake that guarantees a min. commodity price. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #nbpoli

@judy-bug.bsky.social@thomjeff.bsky.socialAlso says NB can be ‘choosy’.
NB is so far from being ‘choosy’ on any investment & certainly limited in time on one of the projects, Mactaquac.
Given most of the capital at the Summit is from the U.S., does this ideology to ‘block’ extend to U.S. investors?
NB: Not a Place to Invest. #nbpoli
@torontokate.bsky.social@kaicable.bsky.socialNeoliberal Mark Carney.

@thomjeff.bsky.socialNorway warns gas production in North Sea will plunge as soon as 2030. Several large fields contributing significantly to total production will plateau rapidly post-2026.
Let’s get serious in NB on gas development. #nbpoli apple.news/AUMdl0n9iTq2...
@thomjeff.bsky.socialProspectus presents one of NB’s strongest opportunities using outdated capital ask while omitting the project’s strongest selling point: a 1.6yr payback.
Makes the prospectus look less like a rigorously prepared investment document and more like a hurried compilation. #nbpoli
@thomjeff.bsky.socialI wanted to understand how a mill that has received $29 million from taxpayers has questions about its future.
My research shows $200 million in operating losses and international owners who are customers with alternative options. #nbpoli thomjeffwrites.substack.com/p/when-savin...
@thomjeff.bsky.socialFrom the prospectus, the weakness on Mactaquac is the US$5.1–6.6B cost & uncertainty about what private investors can actually own or finance.
For us here at home, what it means to ratepayers.
It’s time for a project & Fit for Future update from NB Power and Holt Government. #nbpoli
@thomjeff.bsky.social𝗛𝗼𝗹𝘁 𝗚𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗼…
Premier Holt & The Entourage are off to Carney’s Investors Summit to pitch 8 investment opportunities. One is ‘Mactaquac lifetime achievement project’
Is this NB Power Sale, Holt Liberal Edition? #nbpoli substack.com/@thomjeffwri...
