Liberal Leader A No Show At His Party's Forum On Economic Development

If the provincial economy and how to turn it around is going to be the big issue in the next provincial election, some people might find it odd that the Liberal party's policy forum on urban economic development was held without Provincial Party Leader Brian Gallant. 

Instead, Dieppe Centre M-L-A Roger Melanson served as co-chair and tells CHSJ News Gallant will be well informed of what was said and the ideas that were put forward.
 
Melanson says one idea that stuck out for him was the need to ditch short term solutions to spur growth and come up with a long term economic plan that would span from 10 to 15 years.
