Premier David Alward is responding to word that Liberal leader Brian Gallant is saying his message in Saint John on shale gas was misrepresented in the media.
Alward says Gallant is playing politics adding it does a huge disservice to the province and the people of New Brunswick deserve more from the leader of the opposition.
Alward describes shale gas as a huge opportunity with the potential for a $20 billion dollar investment in the province.
Gallant said the Liberal party advocates pressing pause on the industry right now until we know about its impact on water and the environment.
