Very sorry to learn of Ivan Court's passing. Ivan served as the 65th Mayor from 2008 to 2012, he was also a teacher and profound family-man. He was a great believer in the potential of our community - he will be missed.
My thoughts are with Ivan's family.

We’re freezing your property assessment value for 2026 so that it won’t increase next year.
While we continue our work to create a more predictable and fair property tax system, we’re taking action now to provide you with some stability.

Thanks for the tag Derek. News to me.
Lots of traveling today, beginning in Moncton with Minister Miles to tour the MacDonald Centre for Independent Living. A quick layover in Fredericton to meet with the province’s non-profit housing executives. And then joining Premier Holt in Nackawic to visit the town’s newest housing development.
Renters in New Brunswick, we’ve got your back! We’ve introduced a 3% rent cap to ensure you can continue to afford a place to call home.

Had a great time welcoming the students of Harbour View High School to the Legislature this morning! Always love having the next generation of leaders in the gallery for question period.
Big Ship!
No, but we offer extra support to anyone building affordable.
As part of our government’s commitment to getting more affordable housing projects on the go, we scrapped the HST on new multi-unit builds. 🏗️
A big deal.

Ils veulent que nous fassions une erreur, sachant les conséquences dévastatrices qu'ils auront sur des communautés comme la nôtre. Je suis heureux d'avoir Susan Holt qui prend les bonnes mesures pour nous à Washington cette semaine.
Les tarifs de Trump sont importants pour Saint John, en fait, ils sont les plus importants de tout le pays.
Trump tariffs matter for Saint John, in fact they matter the most in the entire country.
They want us to misstep, knowing the devastating consequences they will have on communitiesties like ours. I'm glad to have @susanholtnb.bsky.social taking the exact right steps for us in Washington this week.
Fier de rejoindre Susan Holt et notre équipe hier soir.
Ce fut l'occasion de présenter notre plan pour les quatre prochaines années.
🏗️ 24k nouvelles maisons construites (30k par ‘29)
🏘️ Tripler le nombre de nouvelles maisons abordables
🏡 Réduire de moitié l'itinérance chronique
Proud to join Susan Holt and some of our team last night at the State of the Province.
It was a chance to layout our plan for the next four years.
🏗️ 24,000 new homes built (30k by 2029)
🏘️ Triple the number of new affordable homes
🏡 Cut chronic homelessness in half
The Rev. Jasmine Chandra of Stone Church chatting with the Hon. David Hickey, MLA for Saint John Harbour.
Saint John's cherished 200 year old Stone Church at last night’s Gala. Engaging speakers, new friends made, delicious dinner graciously sponsored by Thandi’d Restaurant. A time was had by all. The love and labour was evident. @bobmcvicar.bsky.social The Rev. Jasmine Chandra @davidhickey.bsky.social
I’m here! Always happy to chat…
Agree. That’s why we moved quick on the rent cap.
More supply on the market will help with the scarcity of units, while NB housing adds to the public housing stock.
That’s the hope, happy to discuss further.
Ensuite, à Fredericton, j'ai visité Maple Leaf Homes Inc. pour discuter des logements modulaires et visiter leurs installations.
Ces acteurs comprennent que nous sommes en pleine crise du logement et répondent avec l’urgence dont le Nouveau-Brunswick a besoin. Nous sommes là pour les soutenir.
Grosse journée, Saint John ➡️ Moncton ➡️ Fredericton
À Moncton, j'ai rencontré Rising Tide pour discuter de leurs projets de logements abordables et explorer comment le gouvernement provincial peut soutenir leurs initiatives.
