FREDERICTON — New Brunswick party leaders are scheduled to participate today in a televised roundtable hosted by CTV Atlantic. It will be the final opportunity for voters to hear the leaders exchange together before Monday's election. Higgs, who is vying for his third term as premier, has been noticeably less present on the campaign trail compared with his primary two opponents.
The Tory leader has not held any public events on at least 10 days of the campaign, which began Sept. 19. Higgs was also absent for the second leaders debate, on Oct.
9. Liberal Leader Susan Holt and Green Party Leader David Coon, meanwhile, have taken a different approach, holding public events on almost every day. CTV senior anchor Todd Battis will host the leaders roundtable featuring Higgs, Holt and Coon from St.
Thomas University in Fredericton. It will air on CTV and be streamed online from 6:30 p.m.
to 8 p.m. local time.
