ECMA giving out free membership to those already in provincial organizations

The East Coast Music Association is now offering free membership to those already in provincial counterparts. Members of Music New Brunswick, PEI, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as the Cape Breton Music Industry Cooperative are eligible.  The ECMA is doing this in part to raise awareness of the perks of being involved both provincially and regionally.

Province warns of potential toxic algal blooms

The province is warning you to be aware of algal blooms in various bodies of water.  They usually happen in the summer and fall, and can produce toxins that cause skin, eye and throat irritation.  Not all blooms are harmful, but if you see discoloured water and other signs don’t go in.  You can learn more at gnb.ca/algae.
