A new survey of New Brunswick hospital patients finds overall satisfaction with care has increased, but cleanliness is down.  The 2016 Hospital Patient Care Experience found 78.9% of patients were satisfied, up from 75.4 per cent in 2013.  Only 51.7% said their room and bathroom were always clean, down from 53.2%.

The province spent over $1.1 million on hosting and promotion for travel bloggers, writers and journalists over four years.  CBC reports flights, food, accommodations and more were covered for 879 people between 2011 and 2015.  Lots of provinces do this, and it’s to have people come here and then promote through their writing.
