Fredericton Idiot Mayor Mike O'Brien gets 2 applause in his speech on Canada Day!!!!

The Irvings fired Michael de Adder because he did honest work when drawing Blaine Higgs?? Pravda style of newspapers????
The Premier of New Brunswick Blaine Higgs is a former Irving Oil executive and any cartoon I drew that was slightly critical of him was systematically axed. You want to know why I was let go? I wanted to do my job as an editorial cartoonist, and they wanted me to do their job.

Jamie Irving ordered new changes for his Newspapers to save Money --- BNI staff asked to bring in kids’ drawings to be repurposed as editorial cartoons!!!!
Saint John — The few remaining employees at the Brunswick News Inc. papers are now being asked to bring in their children’s drawings, which will become editorial cartoons to replace those of fired artist Michael de Adder.
De Adder was let go, ostensibly without cause, but actually in relation to a recent cartoon criticizing Donald Trump that went viral.
“We want original content, but we don’t want it to cause a stir or attract any kind of attention from anyone,” said Jim Irving, president of BNI. “Unfortunately, de Adder’s cartoons are often trying to ‘say something’ or ‘convey a message,’ and that’s not what we’re about at Brunswick News. What’s wrong with a nice picture of a smiling family? Or a drawing of a house with a sun in the corner wearing sunglasses?”
