Great skate parks make great towns.

N.B.  Moncton has now closed its skate park because of the "Crown" virus.
Imagine that?  These are some truly spiteful God-less individuals at work.

More shit the technocrats do .... 'wind farms' - green crony capitalism ..

https://www.conservationcouncil.ca/en/proposed-community-owned-wind-farm-would-power-up-to-7000-sackville-homes/

The usual suspects [ Tucz-Clintons ] are involved.. just as they were with the $14million town hall/fire hall project .. no one had asked for that one either...
a 'technocrat' is a scientific-dictatorship-member... read up at technocracy.news

There is no honour among thieves......

A few years ago I was reporting on the 'fat cats' sending more money to Mount Allison University for another pet "climate related" project...

so when people tell me to start up a fundraiser for the skatepark project I've been promoting here for our youth I point to this example as to why children should not ever be asked to raise money for a project at all .. the taxes paid are public monies for projects that benefit the public.



Despite this multi-million dollar generous chunk of change being happily dropped into the environmentalists' tip jar it really didn't help the Liberals secure this riding in the last election .. imagine that?  Maybe they should have thought of the regular Canadians - instead of behaving like sycophants to the academics... ?

No pipelines will get built; no much needed energy projects will be advanced .. sadly - its all just about cronyism ... its just about sucking money from the public purse and appearing to be constructive.  Mount Allison University sucks hard on the tit... I say they need to be cut off ... I'd say they've taken far more than enough.


Brian Gallant still appears to be in shock that he lost this election.. I'm not.. I realize how hard the 'green' push in this province... culturally 'green' is more powerful than 'big oil' .. but no one ever talks about 'big green' .. do they?
"Big Green" are very powerful behind the scenes... don't underestimate them.. another word you can use to describe them is "technocrats".

An Ethics and Transparency Issue? Discuss & Take Note of Commi Actions in Sackville NB [They used to call them bolsheviks]




















30something Julia Feltham banned me [as had the Town of Sackville] from commenting on her Facebook page "Sackville Commons" - see her town approved/promoted page here...  https://www.facebook.com/CoworkSackville

why? for asking her if she "ever gets tired of building a nannystate? " ... she was transplanted here from Halifax in 2013 or so and immediately took a position offered by Harold Jarche with local funded communitarian organization " Renaissance Sackville " and once there she used her influence [apparently holding an office space within the town hall according to Bruce Phinney, Town Councillor] to write a bogus 'expert's' report that said that the old abandoned Town Firehall could not be renovated .. so hey folks, I want to see that report created by her and given to the Town.. and she then took her 'skills' and helped to procure the Town's Firehall and lands cheaply for John Lafford and for her new endeavour for the 'community' for a 'hub' for start-ups -- just as she was running in Halifax previously... which is what? for who? So .. OK, sorry, that's a serious ethics issue and I would like this issue addressed and I would like to know how much the Town's Firehall was sold to very cheaply to John Lafford as he now holds this valuable in town land and buildings property for cheap with Julia's help.. Julia now pays very low rent to run her communitarian hub out of it and has received and will continue to receive grants/govt funding to renovate and operate it .. Julia is charging people to use the space, helping create 'start ups' that compete directly with existing 'true free enterprisers' and boasting non-stop while doing it... what a grifter !!! So when the Town previously owned the property that sat empty for four years after they built a $14million town hall down the street that no one asked for why weren't the taxpayers ever asked .. they had to pay for the all of this .. our old Firehall and lands ... so why was it handed over for next to nothing to a very wealthy developer John Lafford? Why did no one ever think to convert it to something useful for the public good such as a youth centre incorporating a skatepark as the youth had asked for in 2013 when they presented to council and mayor [led by former Mayor Pat Estabrooks grandson Ethan and friends]? When asked to her face last year about using the current space for a youth centre / skatepark Julia said "... oh .. WE have a five year plan .. " so who is the WE? The clique-y self appointed 'community leaders' and 'community builders' .. these arrogant people who think they have special powers and influence? If that's the case then as a Mum with skateboarding teens in this town - living here since 2010 - I have made a lot of effort to get a new skatepark project off the ground - its all been for nothing and I have been continually censored from social media because the town does not and will not stop promoting these type of communitarian imported 'global communitarian change agents' .. and its corruption folks.. plain and simple.. no ethics .. no spine .. no backbone .. just greed .. pure greed. Sickening. Our Youth Deserve a new Great Skate Park Venue... Your town got a nannystate subsidized 'start up' brewery next to a children's playground instead... this is just so unfair!  Well done technocrats...the same stench of corruption is coming from the $60million windfarm [Tusz Kings et al] they are trying to put in that no one want here... by the usual suspects... So there's a little chunk of asphalt added on to the old skate park and a half pipe is coming... .maybe for next skate year .. I am an honest person but I can only call it like I see it. 

Merry Christmas to All the Tantramar families!

Rotary-Mayor Freaks Out on CO2 and promotes carbon tax!? WTF?



Sometimes I wonder if people in this town are going to rise up and say .. no more of this b.s. .. we're done. In the meantime, the pandering to special interest groups, co2 angst and climate fears, the cronyism, the preferred developer 'smartgrowth' stack and packing housing developments, energy schemes for windfarm scammers, funded startups, co-ops and NGOs, solar panel array discounts and promotions, carshares and volunteerism, and unabated communitarianism will continue in the age of stupid.. the age of failure of imagination .. and culture of fear.
