The 2019 Audited Financial Statements are appended as Appendix V. Message from the Mayor Mayor Gary Clark Quispamsis is the sixth-largest municipality in New Brunswick. Did you know our population is greater than half of the province’s eight cities? For the second year in a row, Quispamsis and Rothesay, the towns protected by the Kennebecasis Regional Police Force, have been deemed to be the safest place to live in Canada, an honour we share with Petawawa, ON. That designation is based on crime severity index numbers compiled by Statistics Canada. Quispamsis residents are resilient. Once again this year, we dealt with extreme flooding conditions, and we came together to help our friends and neighbours. I believe we have grown stronger thanks to this outpouring of community support. I encourage everyone to follow us on social media - @TownofQuispamsis on Facebook and @Quispamsis on Twitter - to keep up-to-date on everything that is happening in our town.
