Blain Higgs is meeting with pretty unorthodox Christian pastors such as Phill Hutchings for prayer meetings, we've got a looming political gaf with PC Candidate in Sussex, and some energy politics to throw into the mix as well.

  • Sexy Higgs & His Sex-Ed Outrage + More On The Candidates!
    May 30 2024

    It's feeling like an episode of Trailer Park Boys in NB with the overreaction of Premier Higgs on the recent screenshot of a conversation at NB high schools about sexual education. The boys in Fredericton were out in full force this past weekend rage-farming much to the delight of the Christian right and we are unpacking it with Shawn Rouse this week. We also cover the recent announcement from Andrea Anderson-Mason, the CUPE Leader's Debate the premier was mysteriously absent from and chat about the candidates from the riding of Rothesay.
