Blaine Higgs just changed his pronouns to has/been

Hey New Brunswick – your turn.
Let’s try to wrap it up in one day, okay?

New Brunswick understood the assignment.
Congratulations Madame Premier.
Bye bye Higgs. Take your hate with you.
Martin Z. Olszynski @molszyns:
So, if I’ve done the maths right & BC holds, then nominally “progressive” parties are 3:0 in the most recent slate of provincial elections: MB, BC, and NB. That’s a notable trend, at least — and worth pondering.
All [eyes] on SK next.
Could it be that Canadians are (finally) growing tired of rage politics?
@DuaneBratt:
Higgs was the first Premier to demonize trans youth. First he lost members of his cabinet over it. Then he lost the election. Is this a message for Moe and Smith? Probably not, but it is good news for sexual minorities in New Brunswick today.
@andreapower4:
Delighted with the new NB Premier! A sensible choice! Happy for all my family who live in NB!
@friesen_f:
Despite Poilievre’s endorsement Blaine Higgs delivers the NB PCs the worst defeat in a generation, and the Liberals the best result since Frank McKenna.
Seems the NB voter wasn’t into pronoun policies and making women’s health less accessible.
@Mitts64:
Well, we know what NB thinks of Poilievre’s endorsement.
@littleorange64:
Let’s hope Sask follows!!!!!!

Who knew New Brunswick could be louder than Swifties at a Taylor Swift concert.
Love it.

WATCH: “One thing is for sure. We know that #BlaineHiggs is no longer the Premier of this province.” – @DavidCCoon
The crowd goes wild!
Wab Kinew@WabKinew:
Congratulations Susan Holt on your historic victory. I look forward to working together to make life better for the people of our provinces. Toutes mes félicitations!
@roglfac:
Will media blame PP for the New Brunswick loss?
@ontwoopie:
And Harper is pissed!
Indeed! Herr Harper’s evil scheme to destroy our charter failed!![]()
@Sculls12:
Hallelujah! It’s about freaking time we got some good news.
@markrenaud:
Good riddance. What an abhorrent figure.
@PennyPo54201061:
OOOhoo hoo Next Doug the despicable
Peter Hickman @Pjhvan:
Higgs showed citizens that conservatives really are t there for you only themselves and their twisted Christofascist ideology
@AbbyandSadie1:
If BC is the 2nd province to not vote in a PC government I predict there will be grumbling at the federal level.
The foreign interference will be looked at more closely.
This might be another arrow shot in PP’s direction.
@BRUCETEEL:
Another corrupt Conservative bites the dust.
Next, Poilievre, Moe, Ford, Smith. Vote them all out.
@steve_boots:
You just know Scott Moe is watching in horror
Hard to overstate the value of the Holt win. It makes conservatives making changes to the constitution basically impossible.
Jason Scott@JasonOnTheDrums:
Nailed it Steve.
Zero chance.
Canada is not broken.
Conservatives attempts to break it are.
Repatriated Albertan@Taejonguy:
The spin the Conservatives will try on this… watching PP squirm makes it almost watchable…
