There’s a lot of speculation about what’s next for Fundy River Valley MLA Dr Jim Parrott after he was kicked out the caucus for criticising his own party on health care.
UPEI Political Science professor Dr. Don Desserud calls Parrott’s ouster “yet another example of the colourful nature of New Brunswick politics.” He tells CHSJ News Dr Parrott could now become a lightning rod for dissent against the government’s policy toward medical services.
Desserud believes the Liberals would love to land Dr. Parrott who has also been very critical of past Liberal governments on health care. Desserud says he’s an independent sort who may not be all that bothered sitting as an independent.
