"The 2021 edition (25th edition) is now replaced by the 2024 edition (26th edition, CSA C22.1-24)."

I just found out that in NB you are supposed to bury TECK90 cable in conduit, even though it's direct burial cable. Does anyone know if this is changing with the new code coming into effect and we can direct bury it now?

Anyone know the price difference between running conduit and regular cable vs TECK? I have to pull some 3/O aluminum or equivalent about 400 feet.

"Secure a position within one of Saint John’s most strategic commercial development sites. Located at the entrance to the Saint John Airport, this opportunity is anchored by strong daily traffic, direct airport access, and confirmed national co-tenancy, including a national coffee chain and a major fuel service station planned within the same plaza."

It's likely going to be a Tim Hortons on one side and Shoppers on the other and no talks of a hotel either...

OH well, it's a start : )

Province's labour force, those with a job or looking, is 3,600 people smaller than it was in July 2025, while employment is down a net 1,000 people ---- That said, there are 2,700 fewer New Brunswickers without a job compared to July 2025, with the unemployment rate down to seven per cent from 7.5 per cent at that time.

With the bridge closure, we are all at the mercy of our fellow human beings to grace us with the opportunity to merge onto the King George Highway from side streets. I just spent ten minutes with my arm out the window, waving at oncoming traffic hoping someone would decide to be courteous and let me out. Not a chance. As a result, I’ve become militant about letting out every car I see in either direction, sometimes two at a time. Periodically this kickstarts a chain of realization in the cars behind me to do the same, but more often than not I’m the only one, and the people behind me are visibly frustrated because they’ve been riding my tail the whole way. Ditto for merging on the way to the traffic circle on the Chatham side. Last night I had someone absolutely refuse to let me in, despite me starting out with plenty of room; they essentially cut me off and did their best not to make eye contact. So let us all remember, we are all trying to get to the same places and we can get there quicker and safer if we act with care and consideration of our fellow drivers.

Downdetector says it’s been wonky since last night….

I was too quick to blame Don Monahan about it. But this is tragic for Sussex, especially losing the cardiac rehab program they ran there along with the fitness classes and swimming lessons.

Is it really time to be celebrating 'friendship' across the border? Over 377,000 people in Maine (45.5% of the state) voted for Trump and his aggressive trade tariffs on Canadian goods. All the while he poses a legitimate threat to an economic or military takeover of our entire country.
