Letter to Hon. Dorothy Shephard from Retiree J. Finigan
Hon. Dorothy Shephard MLA, Saint John Lancaster April, 28, 2011
Dear Ms. Shephard,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the direction that this government is taking with regard to the PSSA retiree's plan and my disappointment with the government in the undemocratic manner in which it has chosen to achieve it's goal of balancing the books.
Response on behalf of Premier to Retiree Don Madore, and Mr. Madore's return comments.
(Note: Retiree Don Madore has written two excellent letters to the Premier - both posted elsewhere on this website. Very recently he received a response from Brian Gaudet of the Pension Secretariat on behalf of the Premier. What follows is first Mr. Gaudet's letter to Mr. Madore, and then Mr. Madore's response back to Mr. Gaudet.)
Dear Mr. Madore,
Thank you for taking the time to email Premier Alward below and for your earlier correspondence to Premier Alward and Minister Higgs on this important topic. While you touch upon a multitude of points, my aim is to provide you with Government’s perspective regarding the challenges faced and opportunities presented for all New Brunswickers in addressing this issue.

Hello Mr. Gaudet;
Thank you for your reply to my letters to the Premier and the Finance Minister. I was not really expecting a reply from either of these two gentlemen and I would be surprised if they even read them. As far as the content of your reply, this is the same old rhetoric that we have been getting from government. (CLICK HERE for full letter)
Second letter to Premier Alward from Don Madore
Dear Premier Alward;
Once again I find myself composing a letter to the Premier of this Province, which is something that I never thought I would ever do once in my lifetime let alone twice. This pension reform issue has got my attention more than anything that I have encountered in my entire working career. The path taken by your government up until this point in time is not one that I would expect from ... (Click Here for full letter)

Pensions : un contrat, ça doit être respecté!
L’Étoile 2013-05-01 - Louise Imbeault
Il est beaucoup question ces jours-ci de la révision prochaine des régimes de pensions des retraités de la province. Généralement, le degré de sympathie à l’endroit des anciens fonctionnaires visés est peu élevé. Il me semble même avoir senti une pointe d’ironie dans les commentaires entendus, comme si les fonctionnaires n’avaient pas vraiment gagné leur salaire ni les bénéfices qui s’y rattachaient. Serions-nous plus compréhensifs si l’on précisait que de très nombreux retraités de notre province sont en fait des enseignants et enseignantes, ceux-là mêmes qui ont assuré la formation de ceux et elles qui sont au pouvoir aujourd’hui et qui menacent de les priver d’un revenu honnêtement acquis?
