Rival N.B. leaders hold rare meeting, can't even agree on whether it was cordial


Liberal Premier Brian Gallant called the meeting to get input on a throne speech expected next week, but Higgs says the content doesn’t matter because his party will be voting against it. Wednesday’s meeting lasted only about 30 minutes, and Higgs said he would abide by a gentlemen’s agreement not to reveal details of their discussion. Higgs described the meeting as polite and cordial, but that’s not the way it was perceived by Gallant. “The Conservatives and the Liberal party, for the first time in 100 years, were not given a majority government,” Gallant said. He said he is already thinking about what he would put in a Tory throne speech, but so far nothing is written.
