Online Safety At SSES

With all the new gadgets out there, protecting your child online is a challenge.


RCMP Community Programs Officer Lisa Williams will be speaking about strategies for keeping your child safe online, at a meeting for parents at the St. Stephen Elementary School.

Topics range from cyber-bullying, police involvment, school policies, facebook, and how parents can get involved.

The meeting gets underway tomorrow night at 6pm in the Library.

Either Honor Your Promises, Or Admit You Lied

How will the government stimulate the economy?


That's the question from local MLAfor Charlotte The Isles, with the government dropping the new provincial budget next week.

Liberal Rick Doucet tells Tide News so far with our current government, job creation has been off the map.
He says Premier David Alward has some big ticket promiseson the table, and Alward should either start to honor them or admit to New Brunswickers that you lied to them.

Doucet points out Premier David Alward said there would be no new taxes, and yet rural New Brunswick is being driven down because of gas taxes.

Saint Andrews Gets Cut

St. Andrews has been dropped.


The Kraft Hockeyville competition has been narrowed down to the Top 5 Finalists, and the town by-the-sea didn't make it.
St. Andrews had been the last New Brunswick contender in the Top 15.

The winner taking a one-hundred-thousand-dollar grand prize in upgrades for their arena, and an opportunity to host an N-H-L pre-season game.

Yarmouth, Nova Scotia is the only Atlantic Canadian town left vying for the prize.

Voting closes on March 20.
