Provincial crews are scrambling to repair a washed out road south of Riverview, according to the Times and Transcript.
A section of Route 114 to Fundy National Park washed out where Stoney Creek passes under the highway. The Transportation Department is blaming it on high tides, snow melt and precipitation. The culvert under the road there was due for replacement this year.
The department is still assessing the damage and looking at options for a temporary fix to get the highway open again.
The province admits it is running credit checks on people applying for the free tuitions…but says it doesn’t track the number.
Post-secondary Education department officials told Brunswick News the credit checks are not specific to the free tuition program…but are a blanket step used as part of eligibility requirements for all student assistance. They did confirm the credit checks have resulted in some applicants being turned down but didn’t give a number.
The Conservatives are critical saying it’s free money…people don’t have to pay it back…and maintaining the practise makes no sense.
