We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all EM/ANB staff for their expertise, dedication and hard work – all of which ultimately helps to ensure that New Brunswickers continue to receive the highest quality emergency and community care every day . This report provides an overview of the organization: its operations, accomplishments, contributions and financial results for the period of April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020 . The annual report also includes an independent audit of EM/ANB’s finances, and we are pleased to report that the organization has remained within budget . This year’s annual report also features an overview of updates on initiatives related to the EM/ANB Strategic Plan 2019-2022, which was completed in 2019 . Development of the plan involved extensive consultation with our stakeholders – including senior leadership, front-line staff, partner organizations, and patients and their families . The Strategic Plan defines EM/ANB’s mission, vision and values, as well the strategic directions, and supporting objectives and actions that have acted as the organization’s roadmap during this past fiscal year and will continue to guide EM/ANB through to 2022 . It has been just over two years since EM/ANB was first created in order to develop a new integrated model of care, bringing together the two pillars of community care in our province – Ambulance New Brunswick (ANB) and the Extra-Mural Program (EMP) – a model that has made New Brunswick a national leader in innovative community and home-based care . Ongoing efforts to maximize collaboration between Ambulance New Brunswick and the Extra- Mural Program have continued well into 2019-20, with innovative approaches in a variety of areas that are featured in this year’s report . One such example is in the field of palliative care, as paramedics begin working in tandem with EMP health-care professionals to provide safe and high quality care in patients’ homes, when transport to hospital is not necessary and the patient would prefer to be treated in the comfort of their home . We look forward to many more opportunities to enable the skills and talents of both EMP and ANB to complement each other to the benefit of all New Brunswickers . 2019-20 also marked another accreditation for EM/ANB by Accreditation Canada – an independent, non-governmental, not-for-profit organization that delivers assessment programs for health and social services organizations to improve quality and safety for the public throughout Canada . Following two assessments in 2018, EM/ANB was again surveyed in February of 2020 . Accreditation Canada’s evaluation focused on system-wide standards 4 for leadership and governance, as well as service excellence standards that included home care services, infection prevention and control and medication management for community organizations . Following the completion of this survey, EM/ANB was awarded Exemplary Standing – Accreditation Canada’s highest level of rating . We are also pleased to report that during 2019-20, EM/ANB has met its objectives with respect to Ambulance New Brunswick’s performance-based targets and the Extra-Mural Program has demonstrated improvement in four out of five of its key performance indicators established by the Department of Health . Patient satisfaction rates also remain high for both EMP and ANB, with patients rating their overall satisfaction at 94 1%. for the Extra-Mural Program and 95% for Ambulance New Brunswick . As 2019-20 came to a close, our attention was closely fixed on the COVID-19 global pandemic, and we’d like to commend the teams within EM/ANB for their great collaboration and hard work to ensure the health and safety of our employees and patients as we continue to navigate during this evolving situation . EM/ANB will continue to approach both challenges and opportunities with focus, teamwork and determination – under our guiding mission of providing excellence in emergency and community care for our fellow New Brunswickers . Respectfully submitted, René Boudreau Richard Losier Chair, EM/ANB Board of Directors CEO, EM/ANB 2019-20 EM/ANB Annual Report 5 EMP provides provincial home health-care services to individuals in their homes and/or communities .

  • Cro April Canadian National
    CRO APRIL CANADIAN NATIONAL Loaded rail train U780 is seen on the CN Waukesha Sub ducking under the UP bridge (Former CNW Adams Line) at Sussex, Wisconsin. This US Steel unit rail train for Gary, Indiana was photographed by William Beecher Jr. on March 11th. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2242wb.htm Joe Ferguson clicked CN C40-8W 2145 in BNSF paint with CN “Noodle”, in Du Quoin, IL and CN 2146 fresh from the paint shop at Centralia on March 1st 2011. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2146joeferguson.htm CN C40-8 2148, (which had been heavy bad-ordered at Woodcrest since received from BNSF), finally entered service February 27th sporting full CN livery. As seen in the photo, prior to her Woodcrest repaint, CN 2148 was one of the better looking ex-BNSF units still in the warbonnet paint. She now sports the thick CN cab numbers, gold Scotchlite and the web address tight to the CN Noodle. Larry Amaloo snapped the loco working in Kirk Yard just after her release. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2148larryamaloo.htm Rob Smith took this shot of CN 2141 leading train 392 as it passes 385 on the adjacent track in Brantford, ON, January 24th. CN 2141 is significant as it was the first of the former ATSF/BNSF C40-8W’s to be repainted at Woodcrest Shop. On March 3rd CN 2141 was noted at the SOO/CP Humboldt Yard. http://www.canadianrailwayobservations.com/2011/apr11/cn2141robertsmith.htm On March 4th George Redmond clicked CN C40-8W 2138 at Centralia in fresh paint, looking like a model with no windshield wipers and detail.

When the relationship works, Council trusts staff to manage the municipality’s affairs and implement the Council vision; staff trusts Council to “have their back” when the going gets tough. When the staff/Council relationship doesn’t work, the lack of trust can limit the effectiveness of the municipality and can damage the way the municipality is viewed by the community. So, what makes for a positive working relationship or a not-so-positive working relationship between Council and staff? Murray Jamer has seen both the good and the bad during his career as a municipal administrator and is prepared to share his blunt views and provide advice on what to do and what not to do.

  • Henry Harvey Stuart (1873 - 1952): New Brunswick Reformer
    JAMES K. CHAPMAN Henry Harvey Stuart (1873 - 1952): New Brunswick Reformer Printer, reporter, columnist and editor, teacher and preacher, temper­ ance worker, union organizer and socialist missionary, municipal and pro­ vincial politician, police magistrate and justice of the peace — Henry Harvey Stuart was all of these. His multifarious activities were dominated, however, by a single theme — the regeneration of society through education and social reform — and his union and political activities, which provide the focus of this paper, establish his claim to be considered New Brunswick's leading reformer for the first half of the twentieth century. Of course, New Brunswick has had a conservative reputation and has usually given short- shrift to would-be reformers. Yet Stuart's activities reveal that this province too shared in the collectivist responses to industrialization and unbridled capitalism which appeared in Great Britain and North America in the closing decades of the nineteenth century. Stuart's early and vigorous espousals of socialism and the social gospel place him in the vanguard of individuals promoting such movements both in New Brunswick and in Canada as a whole. In his own province he shared the leadership of the single tax movement with Frank L. Potts of Saint John and played a prominent role in the growth of trade unionism and labor politics. Although it is not yet possible to assess definitively Stuart's influence in and upon each of these movements — no one has yet attempted their New Brunswick histories — an examination of his career provides a useful window from which to view them. Henry Harvey Stuart was born 9 August 1873, in the parish of Northfield near North Minto, New Brunswick, the son of John Palmer Stuart of Canning, New Brunswick, and his first wife Margaret Craig of Harvey.1 John Palmer Stuart was a school teacher, a minor poet, and a cousin of William Lloyd Garrison the abolitionist.

Committee: Director Date Approved by Council Authorized signature Date Page 2 Village of Harvey Emergency Measures Plan INTRODUCTION The Municipal Emergency Response Plan outlines herein comprise two parts. Part I is the Basic Plan. Part II, the Individual Plans, provides detailed plans for the various departments and agencies involved in the emergency preparedness operation. This plan was prepared in conjunction with the provincial Emergency Measures 0rganization. All appointed and elected municipal officials employees involved in the plan must be aware of and prepared to carry out, their responsibilities and duties during the emergency situation. The plan’s success and effectiveness depends on their commitment. Federal, Provincial and volunteer agencies having a role in the plan must be prepared to meet their responsibilities, and also must be kept informed of any planned revisions. The plan is to be exercised annually, in full or in part. We hope it will never have to be used in crises. Nonetheless, being prepared for emergencies may help to reduce injuries, loss of life and damage to property, should a disaster or emergency occur.
