Mayor Roy Gilroy of Cumberland County is raising concerns about New Brunswick’s plan to introduce tolls for out-of-province vehicles traveling on the Trans Canada Highway.
The proposal, announced earlier this week as part of the province’s 2026 budget, has left many questions unanswered. Key details, including how much drivers would be charged, have yet to be released.
Gilroy is calling on Premier Susan Holt to reconsider the plan, warning it could have significant impacts on northern Nova Scotia.
He points to the Aulac corridor as a critical issue, noting it’s the province’s only land connection to the rest of Canada and a vital route for residents, businesses, and trade.
