Tammy Young Mcgivney from Durham Bridge died yesterday.
Tammy Young Mcgivney died yesterday...This is sad..She worked as a cleaner at the New Brunswick Legislature. This is where I met her 20 years ago. Her Mother at the Legislature also passed away a few years ago. My deepest sympathy to her Family and Friends.

It was 3 weeks ago this morning that Starbucks at King's Place ordered Deogy out of their store....
Funny...only people there were So-called Journalist Bill Hunt and myself.
It will be interesting to see if the New Brunswick Human Rights Commission are going to over rule a Doctor or better yet a Provincial Judge when I sue them in Court!!!!
I don't take threats likely.....Stay tuned.....
That sign sure attracts some attention and funny comments...not too many people like Starbucks and a few youths told me they will never go there again because of the way they treated Deogy.

Executive Director Debby Warren from Ensemble Moncton is truly NUTS!!!!!
Ensemble Moncton is in need of used cell phones to keep its clients connected.
Executive Director Debby Warren says cell phones used to be a luxury, but nowadays they are a necessity, “Our hope is that people will understand the need for individuals who do not have access to telephones to have a mobile phone, particularly those who are on housed or precariously housed. We hope this program will help connect individuals to community services, help them to be able to communicate with service providers, even their family members and be connected to the community. It’s a challenge when people do not have support. It helps them not only make appointments but get to appointments to be able to receive the results of any tests that may take place. Without a phone, they become underserved, and their health care needs and other services don’t get met.”
Warren says the program was created a couple of years ago by UNB nursing students but donations have been slow coming in, and it has been difficult educating people about the needs and the value of the phones.
Ensemble Moncton provides the air time with a pay-as-you-go type card one month at a time. They have received donations from businesses that can provide that airtime.
“There’s no data that we’re providing, but they’re able to text and at least telephone. We just need the hardware, and a wellness navigator, who is a case manager, they do the intake and determine if someone needs a phone and it would be beneficial for them,” Warren adds.
The only criteria for the phones are that they have the capacity to allow the individual to make a call or even text, “We actually had an individual that we were able to provide them with a flip phone and they were in a very precarious position, not safe for them. It’s what got them into safety. So at the end of the day in an emergency, any phone is fine, As long as it’s not so ancient that it can’t connect them to services,” Warren says.
She says, there has been some pushback with the program because some have taken the attitude that those who are homeless or with addictions don’t need on.
“That has been our challenge. We really have to look beyond the substance. These are individuals living in poverty, not always unhoused but precariously housed, and they’re sick individuals, and we need to get them services including health care. We need to let them communicate. I can recall back in the day when we use the term welfare, and heaven forbid we would provide a land phone because that was a luxury. We soon realized that it was an important communication tool while we’ve moved forward,” Warren says.
Donations can be dropped off at Ensemble Moncton on Weldon Street, or contact them via their Facebook page to make arrangements for a drop-off.

Just for an example.....While Brandon told me the sad News...I noticed a Meth Head sitting inside in the corner.....dark sunglasses with of course a Hoodie.....then he decided to ask Brandon to use to washroom.....Brandon told him---No Problem...just leave your Backpack in this container....the Meth Head refuse to use the washroom without his backpack.....of course he just wanted to do his drug in there....he insisted that it was his rights to use the washroom with his backpack.....Deogy was watching the situation VERY closely and my camera was ready.....no way he was going in there without his drugs so he got upset and left the premises......yes....I am certain Brandon WILL NOT miss the Meth Heads....Good luck in training a newcomer to deal with those people....😛..😛..😛......

Nika about War in Ukraine 🇺🇦
This is from my Sister in France...I had to share this
Gotta share this. Nika and other Ukranian kids were being bullied at school. Being called Ukranian Monkeys and told that the Russians are doing the right thing. Nika has also been physically assaulted. Anyway, Nadia and Barry have been to the school. It has all been sorted and the school is dealing with it. Nadia asked if they could make a video to educate the kids. And this is what they have done. Very touching. Her English has come a long way. Here, they are sitting in our conservatory at Burley. Gotta love them. What they have gone through and going through. Please feel free to share if you wish.
