That includes grocery stores, department stores, malls and big-box stores.
Some pharmacies are open on reduced hours, so you’ll want to check ahead before going out.
Banks, post offices and all government offices are closed, along with NB Liquor and Cannabis NB stores.
Buses are not running and the City Market will be closed.
Garbage and compost collection follow the regular schedule.
As well, the Christmas Tree Drop-Off Program starts New Year’s Day.
A number of events are being held around the city to celebrate the arrival of 2020.
