New Brunswick Premier Promises Province-Wide Consultation on Future of NB Power

New Brunswick Premier has announced plans for a province-wide consultation on the future of NB Power, the provincial utility company. This move comes as the government prepares to make decisions about the company's future, including the possibility of a sale.

The Premier has promised that the public will have a say in the decision-making process, stating that 'it's essential that New Brunswickers have a voice in the future of NB Power.'

Opposition Calls for Referendum

The opposition party has called for a referendum to be held on any sale of NB Power, citing the importance of ensuring that the people of New Brunswick have a direct say in the decision.

The Premier's promise of a consultation process has been met with skepticism by some, who argue that a referendum is the only way to ensure that the people's voices are truly heard.

The future of NB Power remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: the people of New Brunswick will have a say in the decision.
