This is a nice video. May I suggest a better title for it; it doesn't do the informative video justice; also the correction of the Spelling of Saint John may help.
@beavercreekpictures98093 жыл бұрын
Glad you enjoyed it. That's the title I got. used the spelling on file. Let's go with Saint John then :)

Saint John like NB, is the epitome of a captured state situation in modern times, in which a family essentially takes over making policy for government. It's a fact that every politician knows that if you want a long career, you need to cozy up to the Irvings. After all it is the only “Company Province” in Canada, which has been quite a detriment to this province especially Saint John.
