Police in New Brunswick are asking for the public\u2019s help as they investigate the sudden death of a man late Tuesday in Saint John.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Saint John Police Force issued a statement late yesterday describing the man\u2019s death as a murder, but they confirmed no arrests have been made — and they described the case as an isolated incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The police force says officers were dispatched St. James Street, where there were reports of shots being fired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officers discovered an unconscious, badly injured 42-year-old man, who died later in hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Nova Scotia politician is calling for federal help after the recent discovery of syringes that had washed ashore along a popular Halifax-area beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brendan Maguire, who represents the district of Halifax Atlantic, says he reached out to the Canadian Coast Guard and the federal Fisheries Department after a number of syringes and mostly empty vials were found along Crystal Crescent Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Local resident Jeff Sutherland says labels on the vials identify the contents as testosterone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sutherland says he and his partner recently picked up about two dozen needles and a couple of vials from the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Water and sewer workers in P-E-I\u2019s capital city are returning to work after more than 100 days on the picket line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Charlottetown’s city council voted last night to accept a new collective agreement with the union representing the workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Union members walked off the job in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Union leader Robbie Howatt says council\u2019s approval of the agreement was the final step needed for members to return to work today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new private lung clinic in Halifax could help eliminate Nova Scotia’s long wait times for breathing tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the Nova Scotia Lung Wellness Clinic opens later this month, respiratory therapy students at Dalhousie University will be trained to administer tests under the supervision of Nova Scotia Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The clinic will give the students on-the-job training while helping more Nova Scotians get tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
