Great letter to Premier Alward from Norman Laverty (Check the details)
Honourable David Alward
Premier
Government of New Brunswick
April 9, 2013
Mr. Premier:
I am writing you as a friend of the New Brunswick government, legislature and people, and as a former Superintendent of Pensions for New Brunswick. The overall task of governing is to bring coherence to the society. This is true for all political philosophies.
Partout à travers le Nouveau-Brunswick, les retraités disent “non” au plan Alward
(Communiqué de presse par la Coalition 8 avril)
Même dans la cirsonscription du premier ministre Alward, les retraités se regroupent afin de s’opposer aux coupures à leurs pensions.
Pension Coalition NB a tenu des sessions d’information à Edmundston et Woodstock la semaine dernière. Au total, 400 retraités de ces régions sont venus s’informer des changements proposés à leurs pensions. Ceci en plus des quelques 750 nouveaux membres qui se sont inscrits avec la Coalition la semaine dernière suite aux réunions à Saint John et Moncton.
