New Brunswick's health minister says a new program for doctors who work in hospitals will reduce pressure on family physicians across the province and help retain more of them.
Thousands of patients were left without a family doctor when Dr. Julie Hildebrand left Saint John after 10 years in practice. Now, she wants to talk about why.
Over the next few weeks, New Brunswick will be lifting all COVID-19 measures. Beginning at 12:01 a.m. on Monday, there will no longer be a need to show proof of vaccination at places such as restaurants, theatres and gyms.

New Brunswick has the lowest COVID-19 vaccination rate for children under 12 among all the Atlantic Canadian provinces, with just 58 per cent having received their first dose.
