A peaceful march starting at 11 am from the Old Burial Ground, Fredericton to arrive at the Legislature by noon Tuesday, November 27 for the opening of the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick.

There our government has 1) ignored our petition for a moratorium on unconventional fracking of our petroleum resources; 2) failed to provide appropriate public hearings on this question, and 3) indicated – despite common sense, and several cautions from the medical profession and other responsible parties, that it intends to proceed with what is an experimental industry without a social contract from the people of New Brunswick.

Let us walk together, side by side FOR A BAN ON FRACKING! Come and join along with signs and banners to make your voice heard!
