Friday, June 04, 2010 8:06 AM
Excitement was in the air at Market Square with 300 enthusiastic young people from Samuel de Champlain parading with the torch that will light the flame when Saint John plays host to the Acadian Games. The opening ceremonies will take place on July 1st and, weather permitting, the athletes will be escorted to the city centre to watch the fireworks display over the harbour. Mayor Ivan Court calls it an opportunity to show Atlantic Canada what is on offer in the city as well as the people who live here.
Court estimates as much as a couple of million dollars will be spent in Saint John during the games which were last staged here in 1996. The Mayor goes on to say the francophone community in the area seemed to come into its own after that event. The theme of the Games will be " Our strength is our energy".
Shrek Glasses Are Re-Called
Friday, June 04, 2010 7:25 AM
If you picked up one of the four Shrek Forever glasses recently being offered at McDonalds Restaurants, you will want to stop using it right away.
As a precautionary measure and following consultations with Health Canada, the glasses are being re-called.
The recall comes a day after McDonalds Restaurants in the United States recalled 12 million glasses because the design contains the toxic metal cadmium.
Still no word from the company on how to return them for a refund.
J.D. Irving and Unionized Employees Disagree
Friday, June 04, 2010 7:16 AM
The Irving Pulp and Paper Mill is contesting an arbitrators ruling that it cannot randomly test its workers for alcohol.
Unionized employee's grieved the company's policy of random testing which began four years ago, and won in arbitration.
J.D.I. Spokes-person Geoff Britt tells CHSJ News, the company believes the arbitrator erred in his decision and has asked for a judicial review.
Britt adds the policy is in place to ensure the highest standards of safety and performance.
Arguements from both sides were heard in court yesterday but no word on when a decision from the presiding judge will be made.
Alcohol testing is still happening at the mill, but is not random. Our news-room tried to contact union rep Mike MacMullin for his comments but had no luck.

The project is roughly 18 months behind schedule.

Elections New Brunswick Gets Ideas On Boosting Voter Turnout
Friday, June 04, 2010 4:19 AM Increasing voter turnout.....That was the focus of a meeting between the Urban Core Support Network and Elections New Brunswick.
Brenda Murphy tells CHSJ News they are pleased with the reaction from the Returning Officers to their ideas. One of the problems they face is the real challenge of low incomes and a lack of employment in these disadvantaged communities where people don't think their vote will make a difference and even getting to the polls is not a priority for those trying to get by on little money without jobs or transportation.
Murphy says each of the members will go back to their home bases and look at how the ideas can be incorporated. Torch Relay In City Today For Acadian Games
