(Photo: Theodore Ramharack\/CHMA).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opponents of the proposed gas-fired power plant near Centre Village filled Tantramar&#8217;s council chamber Tuesday evening, asking councillors to take a greater role in monitoring the conditions attached to the project&#8217;s provincial approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every seat was taken, leaving some residents standing. Members of Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant had questions about emergency planning, public information and the requirements ProEnergy must meet before construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Juliette Bulmer, a co-founder of the group, focused her presentation on the 45 conditions included in the province&#8217;s environmental approval, announced August 28. She told council that seven must be met before construction begins and another five before the plant can operate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Theodore-extra-story-on-council.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bulmer said the municipality had been identified as an active participant in only one of the 45 conditions, involving emergency and fire safety planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Tonight, we are demanding that you use the full weight of municipal authority to hold ProEnergy to the absolute letter of the law,&#8221; Bulmer told council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bulmer wanted Tantramar to take a more active role in following the project, asking questions and keeping residents informed, even though the province is responsible for enforcing the conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ProEnergy is required to prepare a public notification strategy outlining how it will inform residents about construction plans and upcoming work. The company has submitted the document, which is available on the provincial government&#8217;s website. Bulmer questioned whether residents were receiving enough information about the project and asked what council had heard from the province and ProEnergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another condition requires ProEnergy to work with the Tantramar Fire Department on emergency management and fire safety plans. Those arrangements must include a water supply for fighting a fire at the facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bulmer asked whether firefighters would need additional equipment or specialized training to respond to an emergency at the plant. She also questioned whether the municipality had examined what those responsibilities could involve and who would cover any additional costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"807473\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #807473;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-1280x720.avif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-102201 not-transparent\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-1280x720.avif 1280w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-600x338.avif 600w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-768x432.avif 768w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-1536x864.avif 1536w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-2048x1152.avif 2048w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-763-1320x743.avif 1320w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Juliette Bulmer, co-founder of Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant, addresses Tantramar council about the conditions attached to the proposed gas plant&#8217;s provincial approval. (Screenshot: Municipality of Tantramar council livestream).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She also asked about the company&#8217;s application for approval to construct under New Brunswick&#8217;s Clean Air Act. ProEnergy must submit that application at least 90 days before construction begins, and Bulmer wanted to know whether council had received any information about its status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her presentation went beyond the five minutes normally allowed for speakers. When Mayor Debbie Wiggins-Colwell told Bulmer her time was up, people in the audience called for her to be allowed to finish. The mayor gave her additional time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking to CHMA before the meeting, Bulmer said she was frustrated with the information being provided by the provincial government, NB Power and ProEnergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;One of the most frustrating things is really the accountability and not being transparent,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the council discussion, Councillor Allison Butcher asked municipal administration who was responsible for checking that developers followed the conditions imposed by the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Staff explained that Tantramar does not have a dedicated compliance officer assigned to monitoring the plant&#8217;s approval conditions. Council could direct municipal staff to follow up on specific concerns, while responsibility for enforcing the conditions remains with the province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Jurisdiction does not absolve you of the duty to protect your town,&#8221; Bulmer told councillors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Butcher also raised concerns about the municipality&#8217;s zoning authority. She said Tantramar has zoning bylaws that provide oversight in areas such as downtown Sackville, but does not have the same oversight where the gas plant is proposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Councillor Tori Weldon said the municipality could still contact provincial officials if it believed a condition had been breached. &#8220;We don&#8217;t have to wait to make a motion. That can be a phone call,&#8221; Weldon said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Councillor Kristen LeBlanc also spoke about the municipality&#8217;s responsibility to raise residents&#8217; concerns with the province, even where the province makes the final decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Terry Jones, another co-founder of Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant, also wanted more information about the project made available to residents. Jones wanted a dedicated municipal webpage containing correspondence involving ProEnergy, NB Power and the province, along with information about any proposed community benefits. She also requested fuller records of meetings and communications, with legally protected information withheld where necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-dominant-color=\"827676\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #827676;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-1280x720.avif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-102202 not-transparent\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-1280x720.avif 1280w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-600x338.avif 600w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-768x432.avif 768w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-1536x864.avif 1536w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-2048x1152.avif 2048w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Screenshot-764-1320x743.avif 1320w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Terry Jones, co-founder of Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant, speaks to Tantramar council about public access to information and municipal oversight of the proposed gas plant. (Screenshot: Municipality of Tantramar council livestream).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She asked the Tantramar Fire Department to seek independent legal, insurance and financial advice before accepting emergency planning arrangements proposed by the company. Jones also called for a public town hall before any related agreements were approved and signed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the meeting, Jones told CHMA she had hoped councillors would ask more questions. She said she was disappointed, although not surprised, to hear the municipality had no dedicated officer assigned to monitor the provincial conditions. Jones said she was continuing to seek information about the fire department&#8217;s potential responsibilities, including legal liability and mutual aid agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andy Mills moved to Tantramar from Ontario after working for 44 years. He said he chose the area for his retirement because it was quiet and clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said he was frustrated with the way the project had been handled, particularly by the provincial government. He wanted elected officials to take residents&#8217; concerns more seriously. Mills said opponents would continue making their views known, but intended to do so politely and firmly. He also worried about what the plant could mean for the land and wildlife around Centre Village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Near the end of the meeting, Deputy Mayor Josh Goguen asked council to consider a motion adopting recommendations from Tantramar&#8217;s Climate Change Advisory Committee concerning the gas plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Councillor Alyssa Greene wanted more time to review the motion. Without unanimous consent to bypass the usual notice requirement, council did not take up the motion that evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:28% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img data-dominant-color=\"7a6c63\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #7a6c63;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"810\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1.avif\" alt=\"lk;k;lk\n\" class=\"wp-image-83784 size-full not-transparent\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1.avif 810w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1-600x600.avif 600w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1-300x300.avif 300w, https:\/\/www.chmafm.com\/welcome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/1-768x768.avif 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Theodore Ramharack<\/strong> holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Western University and a diploma in Broadcast Journalism.
