🚨 Community Alert - Saint John, NB

Saint John police have confirmed one person is dead and another is in custody after a shooting near Carmarthen Street & King Street East earlier today.

The incident prompted lockdowns at nearby schools and a shelter-in-place advisory for local residents. Police pursued three suspects reportedly seen fleeing on foot, leading to a tactical operation at an apartment building on Elliott Row. One suspect was arrested by 2:45 p.m.

Authorities are treating this as an isolated incident but the investigation remains active.

🗳️ Canada Votes 2025: Atlantic Canada's Early Results

Mark Carney has been projected to form the next government, but the night isn’t over yet. Final results are still coming in, and the full picture for Atlantic Canada and the country is still taking shape.

Here’s where Atlantic Canada stands so far:

Nova Scotia: Liberals leading in 9 ridings, Conservatives in 2

New Brunswick: Liberals leading in 6 ridings, Conservatives in 4

Newfoundland & Labrador: Liberals leading in 6 ridings, Conservatives in 1

Prince Edward Island: Liberals leading in all 4 ridings

Reminder:
Voting is a fundamental right and a powerful act of engagement. Even if you’re frustrated with the choices, showing up matters. Spoiling your ballot sends a message too - one of dissatisfaction but not silence.

Poll Question:
How do you feel about the 2025 election results in Atlantic Canada so far?

✅ “Feeling pretty good - could’ve been worse!”

🤔 “Mixed bag - like grocery day after payday.”

❌ “Nope. Toss it all and start again.”

Let’s keep the conversation going.

Atlantic Canada is about to get a little spicier this summer, thanks to the Jamaican Canadian Association of New Brunswick (JCANB)! They're preparing to launch the very first annual Jerk Fest in the region, celebrating Jamaican culture, Caribbean vibes, and the incredible cultural mosaic found throughout New Brunswick.

JCANB is currently seeking community input to make this event a standout success. They're inviting the public to participate in a short survey to ensure the festival captures the spirit and tastes of everyone involved.

At BlackLantic, we're excited to highlight efforts like these that uplift and unite the diverse communities across Atlantic Canada.

Fin to play Mike Jack on the Bluetooth speakers the rest of the day outdoors. Happy Sunday.
