Miramichi Queen Elizabeth Park kerfuffle

Miramichi will soon release its plans for Queen Elizabeth Park, regarding its reconstruction.

People got worried back in December when a number of donated historic lampposts from Max Aitken, better known as Lord Beaverbrook; were tossed into a snow bank.

City councillors apologized for that and have promised to find an alternate use for the lampposts later this year.

French Fort Cove zipline

Miramichi officials say work is taking place for a zipline ride to debut in French Fort Cove on the Canada Day weekend.

The cost of the project is 180 thousand dollars.

Details about user fees and some of the other aspects of the operation will be released in a few weeks.
