A new poll indicates that a large majority of New Brunswickers are satisfied with the provincial government’s response to the historic levels of flooding last month.
The poll, conducted by Corporate Research Associates (CRA), asked 400 adult New Brunswickers their thoughts on the government’s response to the flooding.
Three hundred and eight of those who were polled said they were completely, or mostly satisfied with the government’s response.

Roughly 13 per cent of respondents indicated they were completely or mostly dissatisfied with the emergency response and 10 per cent said they did not have an opinion on the matter.
“Despite the devastating floods that hit New Brunswick this spring, residents in the province appear to be satisfied with the emergency response to those floods,” said Don Mills, chairman and CEO of CRA.
“At the same time, there remains a lot of restoration work to be completed in the areas directly affected by the floods.”
The telephone poll was accurate to within 4.9 percentage points, 95 times out of 100.
