Mr. Speaker, yesterday was election day for most municipalities of beautiful New Brunswick. The results will be known in a few days.
Before the results come out, I want to congratulate the 15 mayors and municipal councils in my beautiful riding of Madawaska—Restigouche for their hard work and dedication. Their terms were extended by one year because of COVID-19.
They have been hard at work during these years working on infrastructure projects, for instance festivals, cultural events, etc. Being on a municipal council takes a lot of time, and I thank all of these people for generously giving their time for the best interest of their respective communities.
To the outgoing mayors and councillors who will be retiring, I want to say thank you so much for your work, and I wish you luck in your future endeavours.
To the ones re-offering a new mandate and to all the new candidates, I wish the best of luck.
I look forward to working with the new municipal councillors. Together, we will accomplish great things for Madawaska—Restigouche.
