After this weekend, we should have a better idea what the newest political party in the province, the People's Alliance stands for. The party is meeting in Oromocto to put together a platform to offer voters for the September 27th provincial election. Party leader Kris Austin tells CHSJ News what won't change is the pledge to hold free votes in the Legislature so M-L-A's can better represent the views of the people in their ridings. He claims that won't be as chaotic as some people might think. Austin vows the policy meeting will give those people who haven't been listened to by the mainstream parties a chance to be heard for a change.
The Party's Executive director Stirling Wright says they will have a lot to talk about including transportation, health care, education, the environment, energy and employment opportunities.
