  • The housing minister says that he had a “very positive meeting” with representatives from the Freshwinds Eco-Village Housing Cooperative on Tuesday while he was in Sackville, and that the province is “supportive of the project as of now”.
  • The municipality of Tantramar has started recruiting a new town clerk, after former clerk Donna Beal retired at the end of April.
