Member’s Speak-Up: NB Provincial Election 2010
A provincial election is currently underway. As registered nurses, you provide a strong, first-hand and informed voice to engage political representatives of the existing challenges facing our healthcare system.
Member’s can:
- engage candidates when they arrive at your door or call you at home;
- write it down—send letters expressing your concerns to all candidates and / or publicly mail a letter to the editor;
- approach candidates face-to-face at community events or at their campaign headquarters;
- bring strength in numbers, organize a group, colleague or chapter meeting with your local candidates;
- attend local debates to learn more about each candidate’s position on various issues; and
- most importantly VOTE on September 27th, 2010.
As your regulatory body and professional association, NANB met with all five political parties over the summer months to share our priorities. NANB recommended four policy initiatives based on your feedback provided in the recent strategic planning process, which we believe are also the priorities for New Brunswick in relation to the health of our population and health services.
