Did you know it’s not an easy task to take the time and pick a person of the week?
After thinking about it? I finally found one.
My person of the week is Rick Mantle.
Who’s Rick Mantle you asked?
He’s a radio talk show host from CFBC in Saint John New Brunswick.
The show is called –Talk of the Town.
That show has been around for the last 30 years and I have been a regular caller for the last 10 years.
Some people might say that I’m kissing butt in nominating this individual?
Well, that’s not my style!
When the issue of LNG came up in the spring. The issue was talked about almost daily.
The host is in control of the show.
Rick could have easily cut the issue off from the public.
But he didn’t. He kept on asking the public for their views on this issue and callers called in with their views.
Rick went further than his show by organizing a meeting in Saint John so Saint Johners could show up in great numbers.
I was there and I would say around 400 people showed up to speak out against the LNG!!!!
Any talk show host would have been afraid to speak out against the Irvings in fear of their job.
Rick stood firm and came back on the air a few weeks ago.
The issue of LNG is still talked about on the air and all the praise should go to Rick Mantle.
I might add that he allows callers to speak freely so therefore making them feel at ease.
There’s also more new callers phoning in with their concerns.
I also like the fact that Rick allows me to mention my blog on the air therefore attracting more new visitors to my blog site.
Yes, this is the only talk show in the province and Rick Mantle should be congratulated for a job very well done!
Congratulation Rick!
THANK GOD FOR TALK SHOWS!!!!!
What’s your view on this choice?

VERY GOOD GESTURE FROM MLA'S AND BUREAUCRATS!!!!
This is the reason Bernard Lord and the bureaucrat don’t wish to raise the welfare rate in this province.
They truly believe they are doing their share by leaving half butt tailor made cigarette in the ashtray outside of the door of the Legislature for the poor peasants in this City!
Isn’t this gesture awfully nice of these MLA’S and bureaucrats???
My God? Nothing better than a good half smoke tailor made cigarette.
Yes, with the high price of oil, the poor are going to go through a very difficult period this winter.
Many will die in their homes but does Bernard Lord care?
Of course not!!!

NEW BRUNSWICK - THE ROAD TO THE CAPITAL!!!!
There was once a very bright intelligent young man who decided that he wanted to become a politician.
After months of going door to door. He succeeded in his quest and became an MLA!!!!
He soon found out that he didn't have any power in the Capital after he came face to face with the evil bureaucrats!!!
More problems came when he felt the powerful grip of J.D. Irving!!!
If the Irvings weren't around the Capital. The Irving bureaucrats would take care of the Irving's interest!
Of course he had the power so he appointed a couple of his closest friends to watch his back!!
The Irving's with their spies try to convince the media that everything was ok!
Of course they were affraid that maybe a few New Brunswickers would cross that thin line. It doesn't happen too often!
Then one day, the elected official heard that a bloggler was in the Capital!
After this all hell broke lose because New Brunswickers could share their views with this bloggler so therefore all the evil bureaucrats may finally leave the Capital in shame!
and New Brunswickers could once again be proud to be call - Canadians!!!
I know it's late! I'm going to bed!!! Good night!!!!!!!!
