– macleans.ca
FREDERICTON – Voters in New Brunswick go to the polls today after a 32-day election campaign that has been fought on job creation and economic development.
The Liberal party led by Brian Gallant is promising to spend $900 million over six years on the province’s infrastructure, which they say would create more than 1,700 jobs a year.
Premier David Alward of the Progressive Conservatives wants to push ahead with the development of the province’s natural resources, including drilling for shale gas.
Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, for shale gas has been a divisive issue that led to a violent protest last year in Rexton.
Alward believes the province is on the verge of $10 billion in private investment flowing from the shale gas sector and the proposed Energy East Pipeline, which would see oil shipped from Alberta to Saint John.
Gallant is taking a more cautious approach on shale gas, promising a moratorium on fracking, until more study is done on the risks.
The final full day of the campaign on Sunday saw Gallant and Alward pump up the party faithful at a series of rallies and barbecues…

Harper welcomes South Korean president following completion of free trade pact
– canadianbusiness.com
OTTAWA – Prime Minister Stephen Harper is welcoming South Korean President Park Geun-hye to Parliament Hill.
Park is finishing up her state visit to Canada with a meeting in Harper’s Centre Block office.
The two countries announced the completion of a free trade agreement earlier this year after a decade of on-again, off-again negotiations.
The Harper government says the deal would increase Canadian exports to South Korea by 32 per cent and grow the economy by $1.7 billion.
As Canada’s first major trade deal in the Asia-Pacific, it is also seen as a major stepping stone for the country’s trade ambitions in the region.
The South Korean pact and Canada’s recent investment protection agreement with China are seen as important steps towards boosting business ties with Asia to help grow the economy.
