Prime Minister visits New Brunswick communities today hit by ice storm
LAMEQUE, N.B. — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau praised the community spirit that New Brunswickers showed in dealing with last week’s ice storm as he visited some of the most hard hit communities Friday night.
Trudeau went to a warming station at the Royal Canadian Legion in Neguac to thank volunteers and meet with members of the public who are still there.
Trudeau praised the crowd at the warming centre for sticking together during the crisis.
“Everyone in Canada know New Brunswickers, your strength, your neighbourliness … You really, really notice it during the tough times,” he said.
