As a resident of New Brunswick I would like to inform you that I am dissatisfied with the recent decisions of the Conservative Government to cut services and eliminate essential jobs within our Health Care System. How do you justify cost savings over the health, safety and welfare of ALL New Brunswick citizens? How do you determine quality in Health Care? You are mandated to follow a budget but at what cost? Whose mandate is it to look after the health and welfare of patients, public & staff?
.
