Economy, relationship strained between Campbellton, N.B. region, neighbouring Quebec communities
COVID-19 pandemic, the Restigouche Regional Service Commission is calling for a regional “bubble” for residents living in Campbellton, on the Listuguj First Nation and in the community of Pointe-à-la-Croix.Effectively, if this happened, it would allow people in the region access to each community on opposing sides of the Restigouche River, removing the self-isolation requirement.Some people living in Listuguj work in Campbellton, and vice-versa, while others access grocery stores, medical appointments and pharmacies in the Campbellton area, says Chief Darcy Gray.And approximately 120 high school students from the First Nation also attend Sugarloaf Senior High School, he says.
