The road from Campbellton to Pointe-à-la-Croix has never been as deserted as it is right now. This new measure still allows essential workers to cross. The owner of Provigo is a citizen of New Brunswick.
This situation is unprecedented for the two communities near the Van Horne bridge. Despite the prevailing insecurity, citizens welcome the new measures. For the people of Campbellton, according to Mayor Stéphanie Anglehart-Paulin, the new measures are making the population safer. “We had a conference call Tuesday before the brothel started then we were on the phone I would tell you about twenty minutes passed, I spoke to the chief what happens is that we do not have a directive, we have three different departments and three different governments. “

Despite the different levels of government, communication remains essential with their Quebec neighbors. “Well that’s what everyone who trades from Quebec to New Brunswick right now has a restriction, but on the contrary, there is none. Basically they have a provincial restriction, if they leave New Brunswick they must quarantine themselves, but they can circulate in Quebec without problem there is no provincial restriction on the side of Quebec “, says Pascal Bujold, the mayor of Pointe-à-la-Croix.
The duration of this border control remains undefined. For the moment, it is still difficult to predict whether Quebec will follow suit. However, a cloudy area remains in this situation.
The bridge connecting Matapedia and Tide Head is always left unattended. A problem to be resolved as soon as possible according to elected municipal officials.
