Speech from the Throne

“While there is much to be grateful for in our beautiful province, our communities face many significant challenges, including access to health care, finding affordable housing and ensuring kids have the opportunities they need to thrive. Our province is full of resilient, creative and compassionate people who are ready to tackle those challenges head-on; people who believe that, by working together, we can build a brighter future. To do this, we need to be bold and collaborative and to address these challenges in fresh new ways."

– Honourable Brenda Murphy
Lieutenant-Governor

"Today marks a fresh start for our province as we embark on the kind of meaningful and rapid change New Brunswickers are ready for. The Speech from the Throne shows how we are hitting the ground running on the key priorities that we’ve heard from New Brunswickers as well as the six commitments that we are moving on right away. We have laid out our path toward building a brighter future for New Brunswickers – both the long-term approach we are taking to face the province’s challenges, and short-term measurable commitments for the year ahead."

– Premier Susan Holt
