Good morning, #Fredericton.
Tony, formerly of Fadi’s Pizza is one of my best friends and a genuinely good person.
I didn’t want to say anything until now but, here we are.
He and his family need some help and support. Cancer is expensive.
Please help/donate if you’re able. Thanks 🇨🇦

Great service this morning from Fredericton Towing Company. Neither car would start, but they were here in 20 minutes for a jump charge to get us going again.

Opening LinkedIn is like rolling down your window in a fast food parking lot. Aggressive marketing people attack like seagulls.

Ordered Sun Prince last night. Food was great as always, but most impressive was how gracefully and efficiently staff handled all those orders. Excellent customer service.
