Allan MacEachern is on track to be re-elected as mayor of St. Stephen.
After initial results were uploaded Tuesday, MacEachern is in the lead with 763 votes, according to results on the Elections New Brunswick website.
His lone competitor, Vernon Card is trailing in the results with a total of 241 votes.
All six of the town’s councillors were elected by acclamation. They include incumbents Phil Chisholm, Marg Harding, David Hyslop, Ken Parker and Ghislaine Wheaton, and newcomer Vic Thiessen.
While most New Brunswickers voted on May 10, those in the Edmundston-Madawaska region only voted on Tuesday.
Richard Wright, executive headteacher SCHOOLS in North Craven have been given £4,600 from The Rotary Club of Settle to help provide electronic devices to pupils who are struggling with home learning. It will mean secondary and primary schools will be able to buy additional equipment for those pupils who are struggling to access remote learning. The money comes from a fund set up a number of years ago in memory of Dr David Hyslop, a former club president, who was also the area’s doctor for many years. The fund, intended to benefit young people of Settle and district, was set up and augmented by receipts from the Rotary bookstall, which is set up in Settle Market.
