This is good but it should also include all politicians and their respecive ridings after all they are the representatives of those who voted for them.
They must remember that 48% of each and every riding at a minimum voted to NOT have vlts in their areas so now is the time to listen and stand up for those voters and bypass their boss to openly represent their cause for the betterment of those ridings in question and the weak who have been exploited unfairly for too long changes must come Immedeitly.

Below was in today's Gleaner. This goes to show you how non-committal Volpe and Lord government is on the issue. Is Tim and others wasting their time as Lord government will not listen.

"....Volpe said that is no guarantee that the VLT policy in New Brunswick is going to change.

"We will see if we have time enough to do it by this fall," he said.

VLTs provide millions of dollars in revenues to provincial governments every year. But there has been a steady increase in public concern across the country about VLTs and gambling-related suicides.

Volpe said he is not feeling any public pressure to make changes.

He said studies show that New Brunswick has among the lowest rates of gambling addiction in the country and one of the lowest number of VLTs per capita in Canada."
